Back when a hoe was a hoe

[ChoralScholar]

I heard this on the radio last week, and it very well may be the stupidest thing I've ever heard...

"Back When"
by Tim McGraw
----------------
Back when a hoe was a hoe
Coke was a coke
And crack's what you were doing
When you were cracking jokes
Back when a screw was a screw
The wind was all that blew
And when you said I'm down with that
Well it meant you had the flu
I miss back when
I miss back when
I miss back when

1. back when a spade was a spade?

Back when "good old boy" meant...

[cornermouse]

2. Not stupid. Its just history; the past, memories

Where the neo-cons live. Fact is, the past was never as good as we remember it. You can't recapture it or return to it.

4. but you can dig in your heels and hold on like hell !!!

apparently...

[cornermouse]

5. Its not the only backwards out-of-touch song they've

been playing lately. Another one about a woman whose highest ambition in life is apparently running herself a bubble bath. In other words, male fantasy ignoring reality and running amuck.

3. I miss back when....

there wasn't any of these phony country crooners around....

6. Leave it to an country singer to not know

that a 'hoe' is indeed still a hoe...The proper spelling of the slang for a fallen woman is 'ho'. Stupid cracker. :eyes:

7. Damn. And I went and asked you for a hoe for Christmas.

Is there any way I can edit my list? :shrug:

8. You little hoe

9. "Do the ho gotta pour it too?"

I was helping this guy with some concrete. He'd never done any concrete work before.

"This is the kind you just put water in, right?"
'Yes.'
"And what you use to mix it with?"
'A hoe with three holes.'
"Dis ho, do she just mix the concrete or can I make her pour it too?"

His wife slapped the dogshit out of him over that one.
