Dem Ol' Newbie Blues

dedicated to talk.bizarre

(written in Atlanta, GA)

Newbie is a state of mind,
Newbie is a friend of mine
Newbie he be feelin' fine
Newbie is a state of mine.

Newbie, he lost in the mine
Newbie, he lost in his mind
Newbie stepped on the land mine
Newbie's jes' a state of mind

Oh Newbie, whar you done gone, boy
You done blowed up yo'self, little homeboy
Oh Newbie, Leo Fender cast aspersions on yo grave,
In the land of the buffalo and home of the Braves

Newbie now bout six feet down
Like the baseball in this town
Newbie no more nettin' round
Newbie might as well jes drown

Newbie is a state of mind,
Newbie is a friend of mine
Newbie he be feelin' fine
Newbie is a state of mine.
