  • Me and my friends went to dixieland
    Drove a big RV, with a cabinet full of mushrooms
    and a cooler full of beer

    It was spring time in the mountains
    when we headed out of town
    the peaks were white, the sky was blue
    and the sun was beatin down

    we were rollin down the highway
    just havin a little fun
    we sure can drink alot of beer
    underneath that texas sun

    so i pulled into a liqour store
    and thats where the trouble all began
    cause i ran into their awning
    and we had a run in with the man

    Get me out of this small town, texas town
    I don't wanna be stuck in jail, when the sun goes down
    But you can't bust me, if ya dont know what you found Publisher: Z-TOWN MUSIC

  • J9 from St. Louis, MoHmmm... perhaps the "Incident" that lead to the writing of this song was that when the shrooms were found the officer declared something similar to- "What in Hell is THIS, a bag fulla moldy "String Cheese"?"
  • Andy from Seattle, WaIf you have never heard of a band you should not comment. String Cheese is one of the best bands in the last decade. If no one know's who they are then how did they sell out a 10K person venue in less than an hour in 2007? I hate reading this crap from people who never even took the time to listen to the music!
  • Bob from Hippy, Cono one knows who the heck string cheese incident is. yeah, i've never heard of them. they prolly suck.
