Pants On the Ground

Thursday, January 21, 2010

Looks like the phenomena of American Idol's old guy audition of PANTS ON THE GROUND is kickin' it country, too. The original song by "General" Larry Platt..... was done as a joke and judge Simon Cowell scowled that he had a "horrible feeling this will be a huge hit." Even Brett Favre got his Viking teammates singing it after victory over the Cowboys.

Well, the internet made it so, and even country music is taking off on the song about too much cheekage (is that a word?)... Some of you might just remember that it was COUNTRY MUSIC that first had "pants on the ground"... remember STRINGBEAN on the old Hee Haw and Grand Ole Opry? He couldn't keep 'em up!

And... just Google it "country" and you'll find all kinds of versions... "pants on the ground... giddy-up"... lol... here's some of the lyrics... "With the gold in your mouth, hat turned sideways, pants hit the ground, call yourself a cool cat, lookin' like a fool, walkin' downtown with your pants on the ground..." ...Pull them britches up now... it's too cold outside!!
