**"Like a Shotgun"** (Verse 1) Well, I met her down by the old creek bend, She had that smile that could light up the end. I knew I was in trouble from the start, But I couldn't help it, I gave her my heart. (Pre-Chorus) She don’t know how deep it goes, But when I love, it ain’t no quiet show. (Chorus) I love her like a shotgun, all heart and fire, Loud as a storm and burning with desire. You might not hear me coming, but you’ll feel it in your bones, Like a bullet through the air, baby, I’m coming home. I love her like a shotgun, no holding back, Fast as a trigger, and straight to the facts. No soft touch, no slow ride, I’m loving her like a shotgun, all wild, all pride. (Verse 2) She’s got that wild streak, don't care 'bout rules, But she calms me down, she’s my fireproof fuse. I keep my distance, don’t crowd her space, But when she calls, I’m there in a hurry, no chase. (Pre-Chorus) She don’t know what hits her sometimes, But I’ll love her 'til the end of time. (Chorus) I love her like a shotgun, all heart and fire, Loud as a storm and burning with desire. You might not hear me coming, but you’ll feel it in your bones, Like a bullet through the air, baby, I’m coming home. I love her like a shotgun, no holding back, Fast as a trigger, and straight to the facts. No soft touch, no slow ride, I’m loving her like a shotgun, all wild, all pride. (Bridge) I’m not subtle, no, I’m too damn strong, When I love, baby, you know it’s been too long. Like a shot through the night, I’ll be standing tall, And when I get to her, she won’t feel so small. (Chorus) I love her like a shotgun, all heart and fire, Loud as a storm and burning with desire. You might not hear me coming, but you’ll feel it in your bones, Like a bullet through the air, baby, I’m coming home. I love her like a shotgun, no holding back, Fast as a trigger, and straight to the facts. No soft touch, no slow ride, I’m loving her like a shotgun, all wild, all pride. (Outro) Yeah, I’m loving her like a shotgun, And I ain't ever gonna stop… Not until she's mine.

Stacey’s got a royal flush, Danny’s bluffing again, Ryan’s got a pair of aces, but Sam’s got the win. The pool table’s quiet, it’s Sunday’s domain, But tonight it’s all about the cards and the game.

From quiz night on a Tuesday to clubbing for a fiver, The Tavern’s got it all, it’s the place to deliver. *(Bridge)* Quiz night’s a battle, brains against the clock, Pool on a Sunday, where the cues go knock.

The Tavern’s full of laughter, the stakes are getting high, But no matter who wins, the night never says goodbye. Sean’s back to snoring, the cards are put away, But the memories of Monday night will last another day. Till Tuesday’s quiz and Sunday’s pool, and clubbing’s on the way, The Tavern’s always buzzing, come whatever may. *(Chorus)* It’s Monday night in Barnstaple, the Tavern’s where we play, Texas Hold ‘em’s the game, and we’re here to stay. From quiz night on a Tuesday to clubbing for a fiver, The Tavern’s got it all, it’s the place to deliver. *(Outro)* So raise your glass to Mike Jordan, and the Tavern crew, Ryan, Sam, Bailey, Danny, Stacey, Matt, and Nicola too. With Sean by their side, and the cards in the air, The Tavern’s the heart of Barnstaple, and it’s always there.

**This Is the Greatest Answerphone Message (Tribute)** *(A Song in the Spirit of Tenacious D)* **[Verse 1]** I picked up the phone, it was late last night, A voice so smooth, it felt just right. It said, "Leave a message, don’t be shy, This is the greatest, the best, give it a try!" I froze in my tracks, my heart skipped a beat, The rhythm, the flow, it couldn’t be beat. A symphony of words, a masterpiece of sound, The greatest answerphone message ever found. **[Chorus]** This is the greatest answerphone message in the world! (Oh yeah!) It’s not the real message, it’s just a tribute! (Couldn’t remember the greatest message in the world, no!) But we tried, oh we tried, to capture the vibe, Of the greatest answerphone message ever devised! **[Verse 2]** It started with a laugh, a chuckle so divine, Then a beatbox rhythm, a funky little line. "Leave your name, leave your number, don’t take too long, Sing it like a rockstar, or just hum along!" It had jokes, it had soul, it had charm to spare, It made you feel special, like somebody cared. But when I tried to save it, it vanished in the air, Leaving me with nothing but a memory to share. **[Chorus]** This is the greatest answerphone message in the world! (Oh yeah!) It’s not the real message, it’s just a tribute! (Couldn’t remember the greatest message in the world, no!) But we tried, oh we tried, to capture the vibe, Of the greatest answerphone message ever devised! **[Bridge]** Was it magic? Was it fate? Or just a prank call that came too late? I’ll never know, but I’ll always believe, In the message that made my heart heave. **[Verse 3]** Now every time I call, I hope to hear that sound, The voice, the rhythm, the joy that astounds. But all I get is silence, or a boring old tone, So I sing this tribute to the message unknown. **[Chorus]** This is the greatest answerphone message in the world! (Oh yeah!) It’s not the real message, it’s just a tribute! (Couldn’t remember the greatest message in the world, no!) But we tried, oh we tried, to capture the vibe, Of the greatest answerphone message ever devised! **[Outro]** So here’s to the message, the one that got away, The greatest of all time, I’ll remember it someday. And if you ever hear it, don’t let it go, ‘Cause it’s the greatest answerphone message you’ll ever know! *(Rock outro with air guitars and epic drums)* 🎸
**"The Tavern King of Barnstaple"** *(To the Tune of "The Gambler" by Kenny Rogers)* **[Verse 1]** On a rainy night in Barnstaple town, Mike Jordan sat with a worried frown. The Tavern was quiet, the stakes were high, Danny McGee walked in, with a glint in his eye. **[Chorus]** You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away, know when to run. Mike bet it all, on a pair of queens, But Danny’s full house crushed his dreams. **[Verse 2]** Nicola cried as the cards were shown, The Tavern was lost, and Mike was alone. Danny just smiled, with Del Boy by his side, "Now you work for me," he said with pride. **[Chorus]** You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away, know when to run. Mike bet it all, on a pair of queens, But Danny’s full house crushed his dreams. **[Verse 3]** Mike moved in with Sean, in a small flat above, They bonded over whiskey and stories of love. Del Boy would visit, wagging his tail, But Mike couldn’t shake the sting of his fail. **[Chorus]** You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away, know when to run. Mike bet it all, on a pair of queens, But Danny’s full house crushed his dreams. **[Bridge]** Now Mike and Sean, they’re the best of mates, Laughing at life and their twisted fates. Nicola moved on, but Mike found a friend, And the Tavern’s old spirit will never end. **[Verse 4]** Danny runs the pub, with Del Boy in tow, But Mike’s found peace, in the life he knows. He’ll tell you the story, with a wink and a grin, "Don’t bet your Tavern, unless you’re sure you’ll win." **[Chorus]** You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away, know when to run. Mike bet it all, on a pair of queens, But Danny’s full house crushed his dreams. **[Outro]** So here’s to Mike, the Tavern’s old king, Who lost it all but found a new thing. With Sean by his side, and a laugh in his heart, Mike’s story lives on, in Barnstaple’s heart. *(Fade out with a harmonica solo and the sound of a shuffling deck of cards.)* �🍻
**"Sam's Winning Hand"** *(A Country-Poker Anthem)* **[Verse 1]** Bailey sat down at the table, feelin' mighty fine, Thought he'd take Sam's money, one hand at a time. But Sam just tipped his hat, with a sly little grin, Said, "Bailey, my friend, you ain't ready to win." **[Chorus]** 'Cause Sam's got the cards, and Sam's got the plan, When he's holdin' a deuce, it looks like a grand. He bluffs with a smile, leaves Bailey in tears, By the end of the night, Sam's cleaned out his years. **[Verse 2]** Bailey thought he had it, with a pair of kings, But Sam raised the pot, and he bet everything. Bailey folded his hand, said, "I can't take the heat," Sam flipped over nothing, and Bailey faced defeat. **[Chorus]** 'Cause Sam's got the cards, and Sam's got the plan, When he's holdin' a deuce, it looks like a grand. He bluffs with a smile, leaves Bailey in tears, By the end of the night, Sam's cleaned out his years. **[Bridge]** Bailey left the table, not a dollar to his name, Had to borrow from Sam, and it was a cryin' shame. He worked nine to five, Dolly Parton style, But Sam took his paycheck, with that same old smile. **[Verse 3]** Now Bailey's at the factory, punchin' that clock, Dreamin' of the day he can beat Sam in a block. But Sam's still playin', winnin' night and day, While Bailey's just tryin' to keep the bills at bay. **[Chorus]** 'Cause Sam's got the cards, and Sam's got the plan, When he's holdin' a deuce, it looks like a grand. He bluffs with a smile, leaves Bailey in tears, By the end of the night, Sam's cleaned out his years. **[Outro]** So here's to you, Sam, the king of the game, Bailey's just a footnote in your hall of fame. From the poker table to the nine-to-five grind, Sam's the winner, and Bailey's left behind. *(Fade out with a twangy guitar and a harmonica solo.)* 🎸
