Here's a story about a man named Fred
He heard a bell when he went to bed
He woke up at a quarter past three to find himself at
The bottom of the sea
But don't laugh 'til you hear the truth 'cause a man found
His heart nearly broken in two
All the fish come from miles around
He is the party in their one horse town
Nobody knows all the troubles I've seen
Just outside
Darling I know
It's the trail of the tears
And I fear the call of the road

Here's a bit about a brother Bill
Who had a house at the top of the hill
Wife had to better cry her a river
She fell in love with an Indian giver

Nobody knows all the troubles I've seen
Just outside
Darling I know
It's the trail of the tears
I hear the call of the road

Here's a ditty about a guy named Dave E
Who had a life like to drive him crazy
Don't you see that's a bitter pill to never know what
Lies over the hill?
Don't laugh til you hear the truth about a man found
His heart nearly broken in two
You don't believe how it came to be?
He bought a ranch at the bottom of the sea
Nobody knows all the troubles I've seen
Nobody knows all the troubles I've seen
