Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night In my ramshackle torn straw old bed The mice are chewing my toes And the bedbugs bite Elephants dancing in my head I think to myself "It's not a bad life I can't complain'' Just as the cat Catherine Once again wee's on the bed!!!! ????!!!!!! I just can't understand why I can't get a gurly Like Mary Sue, I'd wed her tomorrow That's if she buys herself a wedding frock And a ball and chain With an open lock I mean what gal Would turn down hunk Like me With a large shotgun A good hound dog Chickins a mule And a hog When I've had a shave and a Bath Put my teeth in and combed my two hairs And put on that heerby fancy French perfume I don't why, but when I walk into a crowded room Flowers die and the crowd leave the room Mighty strange these here folk! I been athinkin, she might like some flowers Ill pinch them from Hanks's garden next shack When he's out acourtin I'll just tell him them pesky O'keef kids Are at it againnn! Yes seri I can't wait To ask her for a date Oh Hank's back in his truck And who in tarnation is that? Only Mary Sue! That night I had plenty of moonshine And the hog and my hound dog Were as drunk as a skunk He must have a better bed than me With the headboard Knockin Against the wall And those hereby springs a screeching snd creakin Like a piston on a pickup truck on a bumpy road Well back to bed again buuuurp Good night I'll just wait for the mice to nibble my toes And the bed bugs to bite.
