Words/Music – Rand Anderson
It wasn’t fame or fortune that ran through the family
You see a lazy eye and webbed toes is all they left for me
Mama liked to smoke and my daddy he liked to drink
And now I’d like to tell you just exactly what Ithink
Thank you buddy
Thank you buddy
So heres to all your sidekicks
And the horse your riding too
You can thank all of your posse
And you can thank all of your kin
And when youre all done thanking off
You can thank yourself again
This new fangled country music Is sounding more and more like pop
And if you look cute in a cowboy suit We can start you at the top
I call it Nashville karaoke
Who’s gonna be the next big star
Yeah well maybe that fella can sing ok
But he sure can’t play guitar
Thank you buddy
Thank you buddy
So heres to all your sidekicks
And the horse your riding too
You can thank all of your posse
And you can thank all of your kin
And when youre all done thanking off
You can thank yourself again
Some folks they don’t like me on account of how I wear my hair
And it’s so darn easy to give advice when your sitting way over there
So if you think you can do it better
I say now come on and give it a try
And after a day in my chair
Maybe then you’ll know why I say
Thank you buddy
Thank you buddy
So heres to all your sidekicks
And the horse your riding too
You can thank all of your posse
And you can thank all of your kin
And when youre all done thanking off
You can thank yourself again
