Everything's Okay - Hank Williams (小汉克威廉斯)[00:00:00]
Written by:Hank Williams[00:00:00]
I went to the country just the other day[00:00:08]
To see my uncle bill and sorta pass the time away[00:00:11]
I asked him how he'd been since last i'd passed his way[00:00:14]
He rubbed his chin here's what he had to say[00:00:17]
My wife's been sick the young ones too[00:00:21]
And i'm darn near down with the flu[00:00:24]
The cow's gone dry and them hens won't lay[00:00:27]
But we're still a-livin' so everything's okay[00:00:30]
The hogs took the cholera and they've all done died[00:00:35]
The bees got mad and they left the hive[00:00:38]
The weevils got the corn and the rain rotted the hay[00:00:41]
But we're still a-livin' so everything's okay[00:00:44]
The porch rotted down that's more expense[00:00:49]
The darned old mule he tore down the fence[00:00:52]
The mortgage is due and i can't pay[00:00:55]
But we're still a-livin' so everything's okay[00:00:58]
The cow broke in the field and eat up the beans[00:01:03]
The darn rabbits they got the turnip greens[00:01:06]
And my ma-in-law just moved in to stay[00:01:09]
But we're still a-livin' so everything's okay[00:01:12]
My land's so poor so hard and yeller[00:01:17]
You have to set on a sack of fertilizer to raise an umbreller[00:01:21]
And it rains out here nearly every day[00:01:24]
But we're still a-livin' so everything's okay[00:01:27]
The wells gone dry and i have to tote the water[00:01:32]
Up from the spring about a mile and a quarter[00:01:35]
My helper he quit for the lack of pay[00:01:38]
But we're still a-livin' so everything's okay[00:01:41]
The house it leaks it needs a new top[00:01:46]
When it rains it wets everything we got[00:01:49]
The chimney fell down just yesterday[00:01:53]
But we're still a-livin' so everything's okay[00:01:56]
The corn meals gone and the meat's run out[00:02:01]
Got nothin' to kill to put in the smokehouse[00:02:04]
The preacher's comin' sunday to spend the day[00:02:07]
But we're still a-livin' so everything's okay[00:02:10]
The canned stuffs spoiled else the jar's got broke[00:02:15]
And all we got left is one old billy goat[00:02:18]
We're gonna have a new baby about the first of may[00:02:22]
But we're still a-livin' so everything's okay[00:02:24]
My crop it rotted in the ground[00:02:30]
I asked for another loan but the banker turned me down[00:02:33]
But we're still a-livin' and we're prayin' for better days[00:02:37]
So after all everything's in pretty good shape[00:02:39]
