When my wife and I were in the mountains for our anniversary earlier this month we saw we were staying in a place called “Aho.” Aho, NC. The moment I saw that sign I asked myself, WWFD? (What would Floyd do?)

The answer was obvious.

Aho

By David Snyder


CH:

Well I was born and raised in Aho
Aho, NC
There’s a little bit of Aho in everybody
But I whole lot more in me
A whole lot more in me

V1

When I was in the first grade
A bully swung at me
So I poked him in the eyeball
Sent him to the infirmary
My mama said now son
That poor boy can’t see
I said mama I got some Aho
A little Aho left in me

CH:

Cause I was born and raised in Aho
Aho, NC
There’s a little bit of Aho in everybody
But I whole lot more in me
A whole lot more in me

V2

At a country square dance
A drunk man touched my wife
So I got out my tire thumper
Beat him within an inch of his life
The judge said now son
Explain this one to me
I said your honor just go ahead and convict me
Of Aho in the first degree

CH:

Cause I was born and raised in Aho
Aho, NC
There’s a little bit of Aho in everybody
But I whole lot more in me
A whole lot more in me

Bridge:

And sometimes you got to be an Aho
Just to protect your dignity
And you have every right to be an Aho
In the land of the brave and the free

CH:

Cause I was born and raised in Aho
Aho, NC
There’s a little bit of Aho in everybody
But I whole lot more in me
A whole lot more in me
