    Jazz/blues with solid quarter note chord comping and some amazing harp work by Tim Moyer, a frequent partner in rhyme and crime. In the best Cole Porter tradition, this song manages to suggest a lot without being vulgar.

    Story Behind the Song
    Very large tongue in a very large cheek. It's a hormonal hoedown somewhere in Austin, Texas...

    Lyrics
    [CHORUS]
    Eight inches of enlightened self-interest will catch you every time
    Trying to put your best foot forward while it's kicking your behind
    Stupidity is the punishment where passion is the crime
    Eight inches of enlightened self-interest will catch you every time.

    Got a man-sized love, got my share of pride
    Got a red haired woman who won't be denied
    Come Friday night my girl looks so tough
    I might act like a fool to watch her walk that stuff

    [CHORUS]

    When she walk that walk
    I might talk some talk
    Are you listening?
    That girl just makes my hormones sing

    Cleavage with it's own zip code
    Will make that good intent erode
    Yeah, it's dumb but what can I say?
    I love to watch my woman swing and sway

    [CHORUS]
