It's A Shame

Well, my daddy was a saint
My momma was a sinner
Papaw was an old freight train
Well my uncle liked huntin' and the other liked fishin'
Lord and my aunts nearly drove 'em insane
Yeah, my brothers a hero
My sisters an angel
And I never meant to cause 'em no pain
Yes, and I am a drinker, and I'm also a thinker
And I think that's a damn crying shame

Just like it's a shame to see a woman
Who's white trash and pretty
It's a shame to see a truck that don't run
It's a shame that I'm so rich when I ain't got no money
It's a shame I ain't having no fun
It's a shame I ain't sitting up on some barstool
It's a shame that I'm going through hell
It's a shame I've been drinking
And it's a shame I've been thinking
But I'm bored so I might as well sing
Yodel-lay-he yodel-lay-he yodel-lay-he

Well, my dog ate my love seat
My cars a lemon
I've got two left feet and no thumbs
I'm unambidextrous I'm uncoordinated
I'd count my blessings if I had some
Or at least that's the way it feels
On them old dreary days
Rain falling down from the sky
I'll give you these last parting words of my wisdom
They ain't much but I reckon I oughta try

To tell y'all that it's a shame to see a woman
Who's white trash and pretty
It's a shame to see a truck that won't run
It's a shame that I'm so rich when I ain't got no money
It's a shame I ain't having no fun
It's a shame I ain't sitting up on some barstool
It's a shame that I'm going through hell
It's a shame I've been drinking
And it's a shame I've been thinking
But I'm bored so I might as well sing
Yodel-lay-he yodel-lay-he yodel-lay-he
