More Beaver
Cledus T. Judd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And watch TV all night
Flippin through the channels
But can't find the thing I like
What happened to my favorite shows
Where they went I'd like to know
But right now what I need most in my life's
More Beaver
Wally, Ward, and June
Them there Cleavers
Nothin' else'll do
Seinfeld's awful funny
Home Improvement's kind of cool
But what I'd really like to see
On my TV's
More Beaver
Now Nick At Nite done brought them good ol' shows back from the past
My Three Sons and Happy Days are here again at last
Them Technicolor, black and whites
I Dream Of Genie day and night
The only thing that I like more than M*A*S*H is
More Beaver
See him and Wally fight
"Why hello Mrs. Cleaver..."
Eddie Haskell's so polite
I've seen every episode
A hundred times or more I know,
One thing you can't get too much of in life's
More Beaver
That never hurt no one,
I've been watchin'
Ever since that I was young.
Now each night when I go to bed
I turn on the TV instead.
My wife will tell you just how much I love
More Beaver
(spoken)
Ladies and gentlemen Brad Paisley on lead guitar
Bet you can't play the pianer
That's why he's nominated for entertainer of the year

I bet you $5 you can't play a fiddle
Uh...would you take $3.50...us sorry
Give me that guitar, I'll show you how to play it

More beaver
Y'all thought that I was done
Gonna keep on singing
I'm having too much fun
This here is just a silly song
And I hope that y'all don't take it wrong
Do you think I'm ever gonna get me some???
Me neither.
The Cledus T. Judd song "More Beaver" is a playful tune that celebrates classic TV shows while also poking fun at the obsession some people have with certain shows. In the opening verse, the singer laments not being able to find anything he likes on TV despite flipping through channels all night. He wonders what happened to his favorite shows from the past such as "Leave it to Beaver" and yearns for more episodes featuring the Cleavers. He mentions other classic shows such as "Seinfeld," "Home Improvement," and "M*A*S*H," but still prefers "More Beaver."
The second verse touches on how Nick At Nite brought back classic shows from the past, such as "Happy Days" and "My Three Sons," which the singer enjoys watching as well. He jokes about his love for "More Beaver," singing about how he's watched every episode a hundred times. The song ends with some silly banter and a tongue-in-cheek question about whether the singer will ever "get some" (assuming he's referring to a sexual encounter), to which he responds with "Me neither."
