Life Gets Tee-Jus, Don't It - Tex Williams[00:00:00]
The sun comes up and the sun goes down[00:00:13]
The hands on the clock keep going around[00:00:16]
I just wake up and it's time to lay down[00:00:19]
Life gets tee-jus don't it[00:00:23]
My shoe's untied I don't care[00:00:25]
Cuz I reckon I ain't a-goin' nowhere[00:00:29]
I'd brush my teeth and comb my hair[00:00:32]
Just too much wasted effort[00:00:35]
The water in the well gets lower and lower[00:00:38]
Ain't had a bath in a month or more[00:00:42]
I've heard it said and I'm sure it's true[00:00:45]
That too much bathin'll weaken you[00:00:48]
I open the door and the flies warming[00:00:51]
Shut the door and I'm sweating again[00:00:54]
I'm in the crosses and I crack machine just one darn thing after another[00:00:57]
You know that old brown mule he must be sick[00:01:16]
Jabbed him in the rump with a stick[00:01:19]
He humped his back but he wouldn't kick[00:01:23]
Something cockeyed somewhere[00:01:26]
Mouse chauwing on the pantry door[00:01:29]
He's been at it for a month or more[00:01:32]
When he gets through he sure going to be sore[00:01:35]
There ain't a dang thing in there[00:01:38]
Hound dog's howlin' so forlorn[00:01:42]
Laziest dawg that ever was born[00:01:45]
He's howlin' 'cause he's sittin' on a thorn[00:01:48]
Just too tired to move over[00:01:51]
Roof's a-leakin' and the chimney leans[00:01:55]
An' there's a hole in the seat of my old blue jeans[00:01:58]
Now I've eat the last of the pork an' beans[00:02:01]
Just can't depend on nothing[00:02:04]
The cows gone dry and the hens won't lay[00:02:20]
Fish quit biting last Saturday[00:02:24]
Troubles pile up day by day[00:02:27]
Now I'm getting dandriff[00:02:30]
Grief and misery pains and woes debts and taxes and so it goes[00:02:33]
Now it seems I'm getting a cold in the nose[00:02:39]
Life gets tasteless don't it[00:02:43]
