Waco is over at Sioux's on Sunday
and he's watchin' the game on TV.
Sioux says, "Flu shots are runnin' low."
Waco says, "Ain't nothin' to me."
Sioux says, "You didn't get your shot?
What happens if you get sick?"
Waco says, "Well, I guess if I did,
I'd come over here real quick."
"Why would you come over here?" Sioux says.
"You want to make me sick, too?"
"Well," says Waco, "I'm not much good,
if I ever come down with the flu."
"So," says Sioux, "you'll get your shot?"
Waco hollers, "Just pass the ball!"
"Waco," Sioux says, "I don't believe
you've heard what I've said at all."
"Them Cowboys keep runnin'," Waco explains.
and ever last time they're brought down.."
"The flu could bring you down, ol' buddy,"
Sioux says with a worried frown.
"I think you're afraid to go get flu shots,"
Sioux says, and pours him more tea.
Then she says, "Listen up, if you get the flu,
don't you come runnin' to me."
"Sioux," says Waco, "would you mind movin'?
You're standin' in front of the set."
"All right," she says, "I'll get out of the way,
but this ain't over just yet."
"I know," says Waco, "it's just about time
for the two minute whistle to blow."
"When it does," Sioux says, "then you'll have just heard
the signal for you to go."

Waco says, "Sioux, give up on them shots,
I got mine Tuesday for free."
He says, "That's why them things runnin' low
ain't all that scary to me."
Sioux says, "But you didn't bother to tell me,"
and turns off the television.
"Aw, Sioux" says Waco, "Now I'll never know,
if the Cowboys won their division."
Sioux says, "Okay, then, here's the clicker.
I hope you enjoy it a lot.
And I hope your Cowboys get dinner real soon,
because it's somethin' you'll not."
"Now, Sioux," says Waco, "Don't be upset,
sweet talkin' ain't somethin' I do.
Truth is, I didn't come here for the game,
I come here so I could see you."
Well, talk like that just melted Sioux's heart.
She says, "I'm glad I got cable.
Now, go warsh your hands and come right back
then let's set down at the table."
When Waco comes into the dining room,
Sioux's brought the TV in there.
She says, "Set down, watch the rest of the game,
because what I did wasn't fair."
She says, "I'm sorry I messed up your game,
'cause you mean a whole lot to me."
Waco says, "Well, that Cowboys game
ain't somethin' I needed to see."
But he thinks to himself, "I'm a lucky man,
my Sioux's the best cook in this town.
If I gotta choose between a game and her dinner,
the dinner'll win hands down."
