Hootie, Lucky Sock

Sanoitukset

[Verse 1] Chew keeps a sock in a cedarwood drawer One faded stripe and a heel worn thin He calls it Hootie, his four-leaf charm Takes it along when the hard times begin [Pre-Chorus] When the rent runs late and the truck won’t start He holds that old sock close to his heart [Chorus] Hootie, Hootie, lucky sock Chew’s got faith in every thread and knot He gives it a sniff, says, “That’s my sign” Then he walks right out like the day is fine Hootie, Hootie, ragged and true Every lucky break comes back to you [Verse 2] At the county fair, he missed the pie Then won a toolbox in the raffle line He tipped his hat to the cotton charm And tucked it safe beneath his arm [Pre-Chorus] When the skies turn mean and the plans go wrong He finds that sock and he carries on [Chorus] Hootie, Hootie, lucky sock Chew’s got faith in every thread and knot He gives it a sniff, says, “That’s my sign” Then he walks right out like the day is fine Hootie, Hootie, ragged and true Every lucky break comes back to you [Bridge] His sister says, “Chew, that thing’s seen better days” He says, “It brought me through a dozen rough plays” One little sniff, then he grins at the crowd “Some folks need a reason—I’ve got mine, and I’m proud!” [Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] Hootie, Hootie, lucky sock Chew’s got faith in every thread and knot He gives it a sniff, says, “That’s my sign” Then he walks right out like the day is fine Hootie, Hootie, ragged and true Every lucky break comes back to you [Outro] Chew and Hootie, side by side Old sock luck and a whole lot of pride
