The Boxmasters and Billy Bob Thornton




I'll give you a ring

(Billy Bob Thornton/J.D Andrew)


My britches got all tight
The first time that we met
Not only were you beautiful
Your mind seemed to be set

On making me real happy
And letting me be free
To be the man I've always been
Just letting me be me

The first year went all right
Even though we had our trails
And then I got eat up
With bleeding ulcers and the piles

I smelled a rat when I took out
The trash one summer night
And found the can was full of shit
I've had almost all my life

You say your dream
Is to marry me some day
That living here in sin together
Ain't the good lord's way

But I got news for you
And you can give the lord a call
Tell him I'll give you a ring
When you give me back my balls

I used to chase the gals
With Bill and Tom and Jack
But they said it's real hard to hang
With an empty sack

You cancelled my sports package
On my satellite TV
But it's not the only package
That you took away from me

I think back to the girl
I knew when you moved in
I'm not sure when she disappeared
Or just where she has been

I barely recognise the house
I'm pretty sure I bought
But I've still got enough sense to know
This catch ain't getting caught

You say your dream
Is to marry me some day
That living here in sin together
Ain't the good lord's way

But I got news for you
And you can give the lord a call
Tell him I'll give you a ring
When you give me back my balls

Darling, I'll give you a ring
When you give me back my balls
