For those of us who don't follow country music closely, Here are the lyrics to Brad Paisley's current best-seller, "Ticks".
Who would ever have imagined there would be a song like this???

www.sweetslyrics.com/452365. Brad Paisley - Ticks Added by Site Admin on 2007-03-22 03:39:47 -- [Ticks] Every time you take a sip In this smoky atmosphere You press that bottle to your lips And I wish I was your beer In the small there of your back Your jeans are playing peekaboo I'd like to see the other half of your butterfly tattoo.
Hey that gives me an idea Let's get out of this bar Drive out into the country And find a place to park.
'Cause I'd like to see you out in the moonlight I'd like to kiss you way back in the sticks I'd like to walk you through a field of wildflowers And I'd like to check you for ticks.
I know the perfect little path Out in these woods I used to hunt Don't worry babe I've got your back And I've also got your front Now, I'd hate to waste a night like this I'll keep you safe you wait and see The only thing allowed to crawl all over you when we get there is me.
You know every guy in here tonight Would like to take you home But I've got way more class than them Babe that ain't what I want.
'Cause I'd like to see you out in the moonlight I'd like to kiss you way back in the sticks I'd like to walk you through a field of wildflowers And I'd like to check you for ticks.
You never know where one might be There's lots of place that are hard to reach I gotcha.
I'd like to see you out in the moonlight I'd like to kiss you baby way back in the sticks I'd like to walk you through a field of wildflowers And I'd like to check you for ticks.
I'd sure like to check you for ticks...

Cute song!

Actually, I have been busy helping my husband get past some very severe surgery. He is doing much better now.
And I am someone who really admires country music as a great American art form. Just haven't had time to keep up with Brad Paisley.
Having been an advocate for Lyme disease patients for many, many years, I know that there was a time when most of the country would have had no clue as to why you should check somebody for ticks. We, who were desperate to have some kind of education on Lyme,would have been so happy to have someone in the public eye even mention that ticks might be dangerous.
Does anyone know if he has a special interest in preventing tick-borne illnesses?
Ann - OH
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
I don't know about his interests...but he IS from West Virginia... so he should know plenty about ticks!
It's hard to "keep up with" Brad Paisley!!
I'm very glad your husband is doing much better. We DID miss you while you were gone. I was wondering what happened to you!

Oh Boy, im gona love this Post ! Hey did ya hear about that other Tic song. Stay@Home Dar, and hear-say, his next tic song will be titled "Dam-Tic".
Im hoping to have it released by this fall. Now why dident Dar think of the first song...? This just may be the start of something new.
Who would knew that Brad P. would start some thing, and give us Lyme'ees a voice.
I had my song on American Idol before Ann told me about the other song. But,
Like they say in the bussines, Timeing Is Everything ! You can hear my new Tic song on these to web sites.
Maby I'll try and have Dam-Tic out by Aug. if every thing go's right.
Daaaaaa, scared to go out side, good thing were going to start going to the dock and staying on the boat next weekend.
If all of us Lyme's-ees start calling into our local radio stations, and requesting that song,
maby Brad will do another one too. Gotta keep it on the chatrs as long as we can.
And were the one's that can help do that, Cuz we know why.........! Tex Out !

Since the singer is from my state, the local radio station is giving away tickets to a concert in Florida for whoever can find the tick on their mascot "the rabbit"...
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
Amazing, "yourtroubl"!!
Dar... Tick is spelled "tick", OK? And then there's "Lymies."
I can only get away with this since you're my FRIEND!! If it's going to be #1 on the charts, gotta spell it right!!
Dar....thought you might be interested in this one too:
Im, Sorry ! If I wanted to spell Wood Tick,I would of spel'ted-it-that-a-way!
And Lymies is what we are. Now, Lyme'ees ( Said LYME'ees ) is Broaken-Car's, Planes, Train's, & Automobiles.
That dont fit into the Real World anymore.. And I though my Miss-Spellin, was right-on. Got stright A's, all the way threw music school.
And if I ever get a song out on the FM Dial, I'll have my Editor proof it for me if my Auto Mechanic-Care Giver, ( Miss Ann Mary )is'nt home from work yeat.
I just dont have spell-check on netscape, like I did on AOL, when I was TixanDar......! And 1/3 of the time, im spelling it that way for a reason.
Im differant, maby to differant for most. Guess, I'll go back to Texas, and under the wood pile with them Wood-Tick's,
and write a new song. HE He He....! Gotta go get the Car-Fixer-Up'er, Care-Giver from work.
I have a heater hose leakin, and my horn wont stop Blowin......! TixanDar OuT !

A tick is a tick is a tick ... especially in my book!!
So that was YOUR horn blowing incessantly this afternoon! Oh yeah, you're not my neighbor anymore...but have been someone else's!! Posted by Texas TixanDar Dar (Member # 11865) on :
Sorry,,,,,,,,,,In my world, there is two kind's of TICK's. The one's crallin threw the weed's, looking for a victim,
and the ones that are on ya. Ticks,are "Creepy-Little-Thing's crawling every-whAre this year.
"Tic's" on the other hand,have dun-found a great blood supply. Ya's see, I was standing in line at the supper market,
when this 20'ish Chic in front of me finds a TIC on her arm, just under the T-Shirt Arm,and what happen'ed next
was,or should be on You Tube.......! The High-Pitch'ed Screem, to her boy friend to get it off her,was entertaining to say the least.
Screaming,get it off of me,I've got a " TIC " on me,and it's freekin-me-out. There was no time to put the "K" on the word, and if she could,
she would of jumped out of her short's & tank-top, and, in a bluer,been 1/4 mi. from the seen.
See, her boy friend was trying his best to get it, but the screaming-dance, she was doing,
thAre was now way to get close to her. Every time he try'ed,he'ed get hit with thrashing arm's.
Well,in the end,the now tick, was flung from her body, and who know's whAre, it land'ed
or on who, and treambling,and shaking, Her boy friend got the food pay'ed for and got her out to the car.
How Cool was that,to see how we feel when we find a tick crawling on us. Poor Dar,
everytime I find a "TIC" on me,I cant help to reamber that time,and how she felt in the super market.
Dident matter if any one else was in thAre, it was just her and the Tic.
Reamber, there wasent time to put the "K" on the end,but her boy-friend better do something, and "FAST"......!
Trying to tackle an Ol Grissly Bearr,would of
been a hole lot eazer, the his now, out of control Girl friend.
In my stupid world, thAre's 2 kind's of ticks. One's looking for you,
and one's on you, and fixin to have a Great-Meal, Tonight..! Out !

Yaaaaaaaaa, Think......! A Chic with a Tic, ya just dont want to get within strikin distance !
Cuz it's not gona look good in the morning. And it's gona leave a mark too.......!,
and a Bull's-Eye, on the new Tic-Host. And to think, it all started with a walk down the path,and a tick,
crawllin-in-the-grass.......! Poor girl, if we only had You Tube, back then.
Evan the tick knew when it's time to Jump.
TixenDar, or TicksinDar, or what ever, I are
,,,,,,,I still feel for the boy-friend ! Poor Guy, neaver seen it comming.

Im having more fun than I did when I had a Music Creer,,,,,,OK,Cant reamber the road day's,and all the people claping.
But, the plan is to get thing's all stired up,and people talking,and calling thier local radio station,
and wanting more of that tick ( "TIC",Cuz he think's it's on her ! ) and keeping it alive and played every day.
The longer it's on the chart's,the longer it's in people's minds.
And that's a good thing. Come on folk's,,,,,,,,,,,,,When's the last time a Brand-New Car
with every thing you could oder,came along side yr bust'ed up old junker,
and wanted to know,,,,,,,,," Ya Need A Hand..........! I've got some brand new part's, ya cant have.
And my new song WILL BE "Dam-Tic", cuz it's on me,and yr gona like what Dar has to say back to IT.....! I hope.
Done Took My Life-Away,and made me a Junker,and im only 48 year's old ! OK,55 This year,
I Think I Lye'd for so many years,gotta ask Ann how old I Realy Are....?
Gone, My Auto-Mechanic, called Supper ! Tix OuT !

Just for the record a "tic" is a repetitive motion ofa muscle on the face or elsewhere, for example an involuntary twitching of an eyelid.
It is pronounced exactly like "tick".

Yeah, I hated that he referred to them as "stupid bugs"! I think I need to send him an email. I'll see what I can find.
Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
Here's the link to the discussion board on his website:
tutu, thanks for the link, but ONLY PAID SUBSCRIBERS can post on his web board.
DO WE HAVE ANY BRAD PAISLEY "PAID" MEMBERS that could post on his board about the "stupid bug song"! i sure hope so! Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :
hey does anyone know if he has been exposed to lyme? or did he write the song? if he did write the song, you can bet he has LD too..LOL I betcha whoever wrote the song has LD... Posted by bettyg (Member # 6147) on :
Guests do not have permission to post in this forum.....WE CAN READ ONLY!
also pasting this comment here too i saw now...
Someone on another country stars forum. Posted that what NO WAY!!! What I understood what Brad meantBrad said about his fans that when he put out a song about "stupid bugs" etc. Fans buy it! Poster thought Brad felt like"his fans were shallow" and thought he "insulted his fans"
by saying that was: He was amazed at the loyalty of his fans. And how much he appreciates his fans! You have to know Brad and his sense of humour. Just had to post this in defense of Brad.
Love You Brad And thanks for making your fans feel appreciated. Pamela
