Cassie's Brother Songtext
von Drive‐By Truckers

Can my brother sit in?
Can my brother sit in?

Well, there′s a hole in the band
And as a favor to Cassie
We'll let her brother come and jam
Well, if he ain′t no good
We'll just leave him right out of the mix
But he proceeded to give some tired mules a couple of kicks

I said two weeks later
And brother's in the band
Well, few more weeks a live album in the can
I expect we′ll all be in his shadow one day
That boy′s a writin' and playin′ fool
We're the guitar army again
There ain′t nothin' that we can′t do


Cassie's brother was an Okie boy
Played guitar just like a god
Write you a song and sing it too
Music so fine, it makes you feel brand new

Well, nine months later
Street Survivors hit the shelves
Beyond expectation, sounding better than ourselves
We just wanna keep on playing
Just as long as we possibly can

Cassie's brother was an Okie boy
Played guitar just like a god
Will write you a song and sing it too
Music so fine, it makes you feel brand new

The best part of my life

Ooh, that boy is a funky
Ooh, that boy is a funky
Ooh, that boy is a funky
Ooh, that boy is a funky
Ooh, that boy is a funky
Ooh, that boy is a funky
Ooh, yeah
