THE BEST LIVE BAND GOING Since its creation in 1998, Old No. 8 has taken its balls-out, whiskey-soaked brand of rock across America with no apologies. Mixing scorching guitar, soulful harmonica, and rich four-part harmonies with tasty lap steel and a country-fried rhythm section that drives this quintet like a runaway freight train, Old No. 8 has built a large, loyal following that comes out in force to listen, to dance and to drink. Combining the talents of five songwriters, Old No.8's live shows are at once both cohesive and unpredictable. With more than 100 original songs and a huge grab bag of covers in its repertoire, the band has yet to play the same set twice.

Lyrics
Who da big man gonna get his way...Goliath Who da big man make everybody pray...Goliath Who da man always pushin' his weight around Who da man got the bad reputate in town The one you want to get high with... Oh...Gotsa be Goliath Yeah Who da big man never budge an inch...Goliath Who da big man crush you with a pinch...Goliath Who da man too damn loud when he chant a tune Who da man wearin' no shirt and pantaloons You brought the catcher in the rye with Oh...Gotta be Goliath Yeah Half of the street is underneath the feet of...Goliath He's oh-so-damn-big you don't notice the wig on...Goliath He got a fat hairy back and a pimply face And he be smotin' shit all over the place If you ain't never been on a skylift You ain't never really seen Goliath Davy hit town, said "I'm taking you down, Goliath After this rock, oh you'll need a doctor...Goliath" Goliath just laughed at the little elf He crossed his eyes as he adjusted himself He said "I'm gonna take you out in the fifth, Cause I'm Golith...and that's short for Goliath" Yeah Davy wasn't scared cause he never really cared for Goliath He loaded up the ling and he let that thing fling at Goliath The rock hit Goliath right smack in the head he fell toward the ground, this is what he said, "You know, I never thought I'd actually die with A bad-assed name like...Goliath" Yeah Goliath
