Well they told old Victor he couldn't build a shed on his own land
Well Victor said "To hell with what they say" and he built that shed anyways
He said "If anyone comes around and asks, I'll tell them it's for sale for a million and a half"
So many years later Victor's dead but out in the yard stands Victor's shed
Early one morning my grandpa went hunting out in the bush he picked a man up thumbin'
Well the man took his gun and he held him up said "Drive me to the nearest liquor store"
Well when they got there my grandpa grabbed the man and he threw him through the windshield
And he got his gun back he got his gun back said "I'll shoot ya if you move a muscle"
Well we don't got nothin' we don't got nothin' on those guys
No we don't got nothin' we don't got nothin' on those guys
Well Old Lina Emery lives in the mountains she's the grandmother goddess of the garden
She points her cane at the weeds that we can eat smuggles wine across the border in the back seat
And since 1930 Lina's been around but she'll scare off any bully in town
She'll be dancing in the kitchen in her slippered feet with a twinkle in her eye and no teeth in her smile
No we don't got nothin' we don't got nothin' on those guys
We don't got nothin' we don't got nothin' on those guys
