I LOST MY JOB, I LOST MY JOB
MY WIFE JUST RAN AWAY
MY TRUCK BROKE DOWN, I WON'T BE FOUND
TILL SOMEONE COMES MY WAY
DON'T FEEL SORRY FOR ME
I'M FEELING SORRY FOR MYSELF. (himself)

GOOD NEWS IS ON THE WAY
NO NEWS IS NO NEWS THEY SAY
SOMETHINGS ARE BOUND TO GO WRONG
SOUNDS JUST LIKE AN OLD COUNTRY SONG, HA-HA
JUST LIKE AN OLD COUNTRY SONG

SHE WAS CHEATIN' WITH MY BEST FRIEND
AND MY BIG BROTHER TOO
MY SON'S BEEN ACTING A LITTLE STRANGE
HE'S CHANGED HIS NAME TO SUE
I SAW A SPACESHIP
THE MAN IN IT WAS COMING FROM THE MOON HUMMING THIS TUNE

GOOD NEWS IS ON THE WAY
NO NEWS IS NO NEWS THEY SAY
SOMETHINGS ARE BOUND TO GO WRONG
SOUNDS JUST LIKE AN OLD COUNTRY SONG
JUST LIKE AN OLD COUNTRY SONG
HEY!

IF SOMETHING BAD CAN HAPPEN
IT'S IN ACOUNTRY MELODY, (yoddle lai) BELIEVE YOU ME
ANYONE CAN PLAY IT
IT'S THE SAME THREE CHORDS OF G, D AND E

PATSY AND KITTY TOLD ME
MERL AND WILLIE SHOWED ME
EVEN JOHNNY CASH TOLD ME TOO, IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU

GOOD NEWS IS ON THE WAY
NO NEWS IS NO NEWS THEY SAY
SOMETHINGS ARE BOUND TO GO WRONG
SOUNDS JUST LIKE AN OLD COUNTRY SONG
JUST LIKE AN OLD COUNTRY SONG
JUST LIKE AN OLD COUNTRY SONG
COUNTRY SONG
