David Allan Coe - Song For The Year 2000 lyrics

“I was ah readin’ an article in a magazine from France recently and ah they was talkin’ about David Allan Coe as a songwriter and ah. They were sayin’ how ah my song, Jack Daniel’s, If You Please, that I wrote in 1956, ah really changed country music back in the 60’s and then in the 70’s you know and Divers Do It Deeper and Take This Job and Shove It and different songs that I wrote. This guy was sayin’ that, he was wonderin what David Allan Coe would be writtin’ by the year 2000 that would be so different and unusual then whatever everyone else was doin’. So I call this a Song For The Year 2000.” Jimmy’s in the closet, he thinks no one knows He likes to wear makeup, and put on woman’s clothes When he tries to be a man his feminine side shows Jimmy’s in the closet, he thinks no one knows [Chorus:] But it takes all kinds of people, to make the world go round I bent the whole world over, and that’s one thing that I found Color does not matter, black, white, or red, or brown It takes all kinds of people, to make the world go round The world go round, the world go round It takes all kinds of people, to make the world go round Michael’s taking hormone, treatments once again Michael’s black, Michael hates the color of his skin Michael’s getting whiter, then he’s ever been Michael’s taking hormone, treatments once again [Chorus] Stella was flat chested, she always stayed at home Stella saved her money up, and bought some silicon Now the boys all stare at Stella’s chest and they won’t leave her alone Stella saved her money up just to buy some silicone [Chorus]
