The I95 Asshole Song by Fred “August” Campbell

 I95_3

There
are a lot of songs about assholes; my favorite, as I’ve written
before
, is by Denis Leary. But a friend recently told me about another
one, which is called The I95 Asshole Song. Jimmy Buffett sings it and is
sometimes given credit for writing it, but apparently Campbell deserves the
credit. Here are the lyrics
and a youtube
version that pairs the song with a pretty funny slide show.

    This is not sung by Jimmy Buffett (listen very carefully) it’s David Allen Coe — Now everyone thinks its Dennis Leary (I know he does it .. but its not his)

    Dear SnooterJane,
    I think this asshole song is by Campbell (it is a different song), and this youtube version is by Dennis Leary, isn’t it?

    That’s Fred “August” Campbell. Jimmy Buffett never sang it.
