Alliteration: the commencement of two or more words of a word group with the same letter, as in "apt alliteration's artful aid." Add to that a big slap of southern rock-funk for your bad self...
Jay Johnson/Music and Lyrics. From the album ROYALBLUEMOON/c.2004 BMI

Blues Number Five
Henry had a handmade hand-me-down hat hung up on his head
Henry had a handmade hand-me-down hat hung up on his head
Got it off a man in Georgia
Filled him full of lead
Billy bought a bucket of beer in a bar in Baytown with a two dollar bill
Billy bought a bucket of beer in a bar in Baytown with a two dollar bill
Got it off a man in Georgia
Hanging on a hill
Percy pulled a pawnshop pistol on a preacher in Pittsburg and put him in a hole
Percy pulled a pawnshop pistol on a preacher in Pittsburg and put him in a hole
Got it off a man in Georgia
Swinging on a pole
Sammy stole a chartreuse Silverado step-side sitting on the side of the road
Sammy stole a chartreuse Silverado step-side sitting on the side of the road
Got it off a man in Georgia
Relieved him of his load
Somewhere down in Georgia there’s a lonely man swinging naked in the sun
Somewhere down in Georgia there’s a lonely man swinging naked in the sun
Stumbled on a band of outlaws
(that) killed him just for fun
The world is full of friendly people that just ain't what they seem
The world is full of friendly people that just ain't what they seem
You can never quite trust a man in a dress
Or a woman in skin tight blue jeans.
