Very funny! If I was still in the record business, I could sell lots of these songs. I used to supply all the dj's and bars with novelty songs - clean and x-rated. The dirtier the better I could sell it. What a fun time that was.

I recall "The Rodeo Song" getting a hell of a lot of juke time back in the day

There were a couple others that were real popular. Do you remember "2nd week of deer camp," "Blow Me," and "Strokin?"
In one year I sold over 500 copies each of 2nd Week and Blow Me. They were on every juke box and every dj had multiple copies. Guys would request Blow Me for a girl at the bars.

I missed that one.

Clarence Carter. Damn I am sick of that one. Hopefully I'll never hear it again. I would rather hear "Patches" a thousand times.

It's the 2nd week of deer camp
and all my friends are here
we drink, play cards, and shoot the bull
but never shoot no deer
that's a funny one.

Wonder if it's geographical? I've heard "Blow Me", everyone's heard "Strokin'", but I don't remember hearing the deer camp or rodeo song.

The deer camp song is played every year by one local radio funnyman. That's the only place I have heard it.
The rodeo song was absolutely everywhere back in the 80's.

Well, it was around here anyway. I just googled it and I can't find anything. Hmmm

Well it's 40 below and I don't give a f*ck got a heater in my truck and we're off to the rodeo...... pi$$ me off, you f*ckin' jerk.....
Blow me, you hardly even know me, just say to yourself blow me and blow me tonight, A handy will certainly be dandy, it's not enough to slow me you got to blow me tonight. When you part your lips that way, oooh I need you night and day, when you squeeze my balls so tight, I want to blow my load with all my might....
Duane - this was sung with a Sinatra type singer - an absolute riot

Blow me was done by Red Peters. It can be found on a compilation CD of party songs.

Does anyone remember the "Azzhole Song" from the late '80's? :
Have you always been an Azzhole ?
Or have you practiced all your life?
I bet you even got an azzhole for a wife.

Thankfully it's been years since I've heard the song but "Strokin" by Clarence Carter or whoever actually wrote the song used to be a huge hit in most of the places that I was playing in 10 years ago. Now I only have to listen to the eminem crap that's taken over in the funny but really distasteful category.
