Karaoké It's a Big Old Goofy World John Prine

Up in the morning work like a dog

Is better than sitting like a bump on a log

Mind all your manners be quiet as a mouse

Some day you'll own a home that's as big as a house

I know a fella he eats like a horse

Knocks his old balls round the old golf course

You oughta see his wife she's a cute little dish

She smokes like a chimney and drinks like a fish

There's a big old goofy man dancing with a big old goofy girl

Ooh, baby it's a big old goofy world

Elvis had a woman with a head like a rock

I wished I had a woman that made my knees knock

She'd sing like an angel and eat like a bird

And if I wrote a song she'd know every single word

There's a big old goofy man dancing with a big old goofy girl

Ooh, baby it's a big old goofy world

Kiss a little baby give the world a smile

And if you take an inch give 'em back a mile

'Cos if you lie like a rug and you don't give a damn

You're never gonna be as happy as a clam

I'm sitting in a hotel trying to write a song

My head is just as empty as the day is long

Why, it's clear as a bell

I should have gone to school

I'd be wise as an owl instead of stubborn as a mule

There's a big old goofy man dancing with a big old goofy girl

Ooh, baby it's a big old goofy world

Ooh, baby it's a big old goofy world
