Beer Run Lyrics - Singles - Todd Snider

Be -double E double are you-N-beer run 

Be -double E double are you-N-beer run 

All we need is a ten and five-er, 

Car and key and a sober driver, 

Be -double E double are you-N-beer run 

A couple of frat guys from abilene 

Drove out all night to see Robert Earl Keen 

At the K-pei swine and sworay dance- 

They wore baseball caps and khaki pants- 

They wanted cigarettes-so to save a little money- 

They got one from this hippie who smelt kina funny 

And-next thing they knew they were both pretty hungry- 

And pretty thirsty tooo 

be -double E double are you-N-beer run 

Be -double E double are you-N-beer are you-unn 

All we need is a ten and five-er, 

Car and key and a sober driver, 

Be -double E double are you-N-beer run 

found a store with a sign-said 

There beer was coldest-so they sent 

In Brad- cause he looked the oldest 

-he got a case of beer and a candy bar 

-walked over to where all them registers are 

Laid his fake id on the countertop 

The clerk looked, he turned up, he looked he stopped. 

He said "son, I'm not gonna call the cops, but I'm gonna 

Have to keep this card"- 

The guys both took it pretty haard 

be -double E double are you-N-beer run 

Be -double E double are you-N-beer are you-un 

Oh how happy we would be- 

Had we only brought a better fake id 

Be -double E double are you-N-beer run 

they found this nother old hippie named 

Sleepie john-claimed to be the one from the Robert 

Earl Keen song 

So they gave him all their cash-he bought em some brew 

-was a beautiful day out in Santa Cruz 

They were feelin' so good it shoulda been a crime- 

The crowd was cool and the band was prime 

They made it back up front to their seats just in time 

So they could sing with all their friends 

They sang-"the rode goes on forever and the party 

Never eends" 

be -double E double are you-N-beer run 

All we need is a ten and a five-er car and 

Key and a sober driver 

Be -double E double are you-N-beer run
