I'd Rather Drink Muddy Water

Lyrics:

Baby, we got to have a little talk
I ought to pack up my things and walk
I know a dollar goes from hand to hand
But before I let you go from man to man
I'd rather drink muddy water
Sleep out in a hollow log

I work for you like a Georgia mule
My friends all laughed, called me a fool
Your kisses are as sweet as can be
But before I let you make a fool out of me
I'd rather drink muddy water
Lay down and sleep in a hollow log

I love you baby, but you won't be fair
You don't know how to be on the square
Have your fun baby, if you must
But before I'll have a woman that I cannot trust
I'd rather drink muddy water
Sleep out in a hollow log
Muddy water

Yes, Baby, we got to have a little talk
Said I ought to pack up my things and walk
I know a dollar goes from hand to hand
But before I let you go from man to man
I'd rather drink muddy water
Sleep out in a hollow log

I work for you like a Georgia mule
My friends all laughed and they called me a fool
Your kisses are as sweet as can be
But before I let you make a fool out of me
I'd rather drink muddy water
Sleep in a hollow log

Because I love you baby, but you won't be fair
You don't know how to be on the square
Have your fun baby, if you must
But before I'll have a woman that I can't trust
I'd rather drink muddy water
Drink muddy water
Drink muddy water
Sleep out in a hollow log
Muddy water

Muddy

Oh Hand Me Down, My Walking Cane..,

Lyrics:

Hand me down my walking cane
Hand me down my walking cane
Hand me down my walking cane
Lord, I'm leaving on the midnight train
All my sins are taken away
Well, hand me down my rocking shoes
Hand me down my rocking shoes
Baby, hand me down my rocking shoes
We'll rock to the rhythm and blues
All my sins are taken away
Well, hand me down my white sports coat
Hand me down my white sports coat
Well, hand me down my white sports coat
We'll start rocking and, boy, we'll go
All my sins are taken away
Well, hand me down my walking bone
Hand me down my walking bone
Well, hand me down my walking bone
We'll start rocking, we'll be a rolling stone
All my sins are taken away

I Got A Wife

Lyrics:

Hey, I got a wife at home
I got a wife at home
I got a wife she's the apple of my life
But I wish she would leave me alone

When I hear
Hang your clothes up
Wipe your feet off
Goodness sake don't slam the door
Fix the socket, dry the dishes
Can't you do a single chore?
Hang the picture
Set the table
Don't drop ashes on the floor
Heat the bottle
Change the baby
You don't love me anymore

He don't love her anymore
There he goes right out the door
He'll be back 'bout half past ten
And then she'll start right in again

Tack the shade up
Wash the windows
Wipe the handprints off the door
Change the light bulbs
Scrub the bathtub
Pick the toys up from the floor
Tape the lamp cord
Make some coffee
Burn the garbage
Oil the door
Get the kids
And call my mother
You don't love me anymore

I got a wife at home
I got a wife at home
I got a wife she's the apple of my life
But I wish she would leave me alone

When I hear

(Hang your clothes up
Wipe your feet off
Goodness sake don't slam the door)

OK OK I'll do it

(Can't you do a single chore?
Hang the picture
Set the table
Don't drop ashes on the floor)

Yeah OK

(Heat the bottle
Change the baby
You don't love me anymore
Tack the shade up
Wash the windows)

Honey, honey

(Wipe the handprints off the door
Change the light bulbs
Scrub the bathtub
Pick the toys up from the floor)

Please, honey

(Tape the lamp cord
Make some coffee)

Yeah I'll do it

(Oil the door)

QUIET!

He don't love her anymore
There he goes right out the door
He'll be back 'bout half past ten
And then she'll start right in again

SHEE!

The Auctioneer Song

Lyrics:

There was a boy in Arkansas
Who wouldn't listen to his ma
When she told him that he should go to school
He'd sneak away in the afternoon
Take a little walk and pretty soon
You'd find him at the local auction barn

Well, he'd stand and listen carefully
Then pretty soon he began to see
How the auctioneer could talk so rapidly
His pappy'd find him behind the barn
Just a workin up an awful storm
As he tried to immitate the auctioneer

25 Dollar 30 now 30 dollar etc
Who will bid it at a 35 dollar bid
30 Dollar 35 etc
Who will bid it at a 35 dollar bid

Said his pappy, "son we just can't stand a havin'
A mediocre man
You gotta take that auction usin' our good name
I'll send you off to auction school
And then you'll be nobody's fool
You'll be the best of all the auctioneers

35 Dollar 40 dollar etc
Who will bid it a a 45 dollar bid
40 Dollar etc
Who will bid it at a 45 dollar bid

Well from that morning he went to school
There grew a man who played it cool
He came back home a full fledged auctioneer
And people came from miles around
Just to hear him make that rhythmic sound
Cause he's the best of all the auctioneers
Well his fame reached out from shore to shore
He had all he could do and more
He had to buy a plane to get around
Now he's the best in all the land
So let's all give that man a hand
He's the best of all the auctioneers

45 Dollar 50 now etc
Who will bid it at a 55 dollar bid
50 Dollar 50 now will you give me 55 etc
Sold that horse for a 50 dollar bill

I Want To Be A Worker

Lyrics:

I want to be a worker for the Lord,
I want to love and trust His holy Word,
I want to sing and pray,
Be busy every day
In the vineyard of the Lord.
 
Refrain
 
I will work, I will pray,
In the vineyard, in the vineyard of the Lord.
I will work, I will pray.
I will labor every day, in the vineyard of the Lord.
I want to be a worker every day,
I want to lead the erring in the way
That leads to Heav’n above,
Where all is peace and love,
In the vineyard of the Lord.
 
Refrain
 
I want to be a worker strong and brave,
I want to trust in Jesus’ pow’r to save;
All who will truly come
Shall find a happy home
In the vineyard of the Lord.
 
Refrain
 
I want to be a worker; help me, Lord,
To lead the lost and erring to Thy Word,
That points to joys on high
Where pleasures never die,
In the vineyard of the Lord.
 
Refrain

By Isaiah Baltzell

We Can Sing

Lyrics:

I want to be a worker, I want to sing and pray
I never want to be a stumbling block along the way
But in the hour of living so many people say
They all have all the answers but they all have different ways
 
But we can sing, Glory Hallelujah", brother, we can sing
If we put our hearts together and we pray
No one really has to tell us what to say
Maybe we can really find the way
 
Well, I hope it comes together instead of all apart
'Cause the better things of living are written in our hearts
But on the stage this morning the trouble is the star
Happiness is measured by houses and our cars
 
But we can sing, Glory Hallelujah", brother, we can sing
If we put our hearts together and we pray
No one really has to tell us what to say
Maybe we can really find the way
 
But we can sing, Glory Hallelujah", brother, we can sing
If we put our hearts together and we pray
No one really has to tell us what to say
Maybe we can really find the way
