Текст песни
Well we pulled up the carpet and the linoleum
We drank some beer, had some fun
Painted the plastic, made it look like wood
It took all weekend but it looked pretty good
No trees, no yard where the dog can bark
Just a home on wheels at the trailer park
Sixty-five long and ten feet wide
With a metal roof and metal on the sides
They don't really make 'em like they should
You can't hang a picture 'cause the walls ain't wood
Gotta go outside to turn the hot water up
And it leaks so you gotta have little plastic cups
You can set out to catch all the rain that gets in
Then you pour 'em down the sink and set 'em out again
Ain't it strange it's called a mobile home?
You just sit there, you ain't going anywhere
One for bad habits, one for the rent
One for the paycheck you already spent
One to your stepdad for the down payment loan
You get one more month in your mobile home
Your neighbor plays Aerosmith all goddamn day long
It's him and Joe Perry jamming along
He's got a Peavey amp and a fake Les Paul
He bought from a store at the Fox Run Mall
And you wish he'd play something else for a while
Maybe David Bowie, maybe J. Geils
Or something more modern like the Cars or Heart
But he only plays Aerosmith at the trailer park
Ain't it strange it's called a mobile home?
You just sit there, you ain't going anywhere
One for bad habits, one for the rent
One for the paycheck you already spent
One to your stepdad for the down payment loan
You get one more month in your mobile home
We got into a fight one summer day
She got in her Dodge and drove away
I stayed for a while but it wasn't the same
So I went to the mailbox and took down my name
And I sold the trailer to a couple of kids
Who wanted a place just like we did
Just a little something to call their own
They put their good pants on and bought a mobile home
Ain't it strange it's called a mobile home?
You just sit there, you ain't going anywhere
One for bad habits, one for the rent
One for the paycheck you already spent
One to your stepdad for the down payment loan
You get one more month in your mobile home
Ain't it strange it's called a mobile home?
