This is an amazing song by Reckless Kelly from Austin, Texas. I prefer it live. Yes,
Canadian Ragweed covered it on Live At Billy Bob's, but it is not their original song.
Song: Crazy Eddie's Last Hurrah

Verse 1
Well, it sure didnt take to long
I woke up in the morning she was gone
And the note that she wrote didnt say dear john
It said goodbye fucker im gone
She was a homegrown mountain girl
Raised in a different world
I was a wanna be rocker She was more into Merle
Couldn't see it just wouldn't work
Chorus
And now I'm double fisting long necks, grapefruit and Stoli
But I'm never getting over Joely

Verse 2
Well I poured myself in my car
I drove it on down to the bar
But they wouldn't let me in Cause I ain't a movie star
So I went to the Horse Shoe on Lamar
Well the bouncer threw me out too
And I didn't know what to do
So I picked up the phone And I called dear Sue
The cock blocker wouldn't let me through
Chorus 2
And now I'm wishing for some drugs or a shrink to console me
But I'm never getting over Joely
Interlude (Repeat Twice)

Verse 3
Well I gathered up all my guns
And a pipe bomb just for fun
I drove to her house and parked out on the lawn
She's right I always was the crazy one.
Well her boyfriend was sure nice to me
Said "calm down would you like a drink"
And I shot him full of holes From his nose to his knees
And I polished off her little sweet pea
Chorus 3
And I'm crying on me knees feeling dirty and unholy
But I'm never getting over Joely
Now I'll probably get life and serve at least forty,
But I'm never getting over Joely
