Intro: #1: 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? #2: 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. #3: 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 #4: 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 (Long pause) And now I'm getting dandruff Instrumental fill: #5: 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. #6 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' Instrumental fill: #7 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. #8 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? Instrumental fill: #9 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?
