Sounded like a "Let There Be Rock" sequel :D
And I knew when I woke up Rock N Roll would be here forever

Panties and Lighters

The man was big and the airport was crowded
The line was long and security tight
The band had already moved on passed screening
I was trying to catch up with all my might

The man big and his uniform was buldging
His creases were starched to maximum attention
He asked me what I had in the bag that I was carryin'
and warned me if anything had slipped my mention

Nothing's more fun than Vancouver in the weekend
Nothing's much harder than being singled out alone
My wife had been there with me on a working vacation
Complete with matching luggage but she took the wrong bag home

The man was big and man was he thorough
As he watched us pass customs, for some reason pulled me out
He asked what's in my bag and if I was a smoker
I said clothes and no I'm not, then he asked me what is that?

Then he opened up my suitcase full of female undergarments
Four or five Bic lighters and a pair of too-small pants
He asked what I holding and I said “Holding nothing”
He looked me up and said we'll see about that

Nothing's more fun than Vancouver on a weekend
But my wife had to leave a day earlier than me
I was touring in my band and I smelled incriminating
With my suitcase full of panties and lighters for all to see

The man was big and I was surely in a hurry
The band had boarded and the plane was getting full
He asked me if I was holding anything in my possession
I had better come clean in the eyes of the law

I held my ground and he said that I would surely
be in jail any minute if I didn't give it up
He looked at me and I looked at him and then glanced at the clock
He said we got all day and I swear he popped his glove

Nothings much worse than Vancouver's US customs
But I swear I held my ground and he decided not to probe
And I made it back to Atlanta with my baggage still intact
And drove home from the airport smoking sweet Canadian...

Tyler, I edited your post and rather than fix the couple of small errors I just replaced it with the official lyrics per Patterson.

I had to fly up there to get him down.
Don't hurt people, and don't take their stuff.
