The sun comes up and the sun goes down
And the hands on the clock go round and round
An' I just get up and it's time to lay down,
Life gets tee-jus, don't it?
My shoe's untied, but shucks, I don't care
Cuz I reckon I ain't a-goin' nowhere,
I'd wash my face and comb my hair
Huh, Just too much wasted effort.
I open the door and the flies swarm in
and when I shut the door I'm a'sweating again
and in the process, I crack my shin
Just one durned thing after another
The cow went dry and the hens won't lay
And the fish all goodbyed last Saturday
My troubles keep pilin' up day by day
No Chord
My old grey mule, you know I think the rascal's sick
For when I stuck him on the rump with a pin on a stick
He humped up his back, but he just wouldn't kick
Theres something cock-eyed somewhere.

Old hounds a'howlin' so forlorn
Thats the laziest dog that ever was born
He's howlin' because he's sittin' on a thorn
An' he's just too tired to move over.
#6
Tin Roof leaks and the chimney leans,
An' there's a hole in the seat of my old blue jeans
And Ive ate up the last of the pork an' beans,
Just can't depend on nuthin'

The mouse been a' gnawin' on my cupboard door
He's been at it now for I guess a month or more
When he gets in there he's sure gonna be sore
'Cause there ain't a darn thing in it.

Well, it's debts and taxes and pains and woes
Aches and miseries and that's how it goes
And dow I'm detting a coad in the nose,
Life gets tasteless, don't it?

The sun comes up and the sun goes down
And the hands on the clock go round and roumd
I just get up and it's time to lay down,
Life gets tee-jus, don't it?
