You Ain't Much Fun

(album: Greatest Hits Volume One - 1998)

I used to come home late and not a minute too soon
Barking like a dog, howling at the moon
You'd be mad as an ol' red hen, up all night wondering where I been
I'd fall down and say come help me honey
You laughed outloud, I guess you thought it was funny
I sobered up, and I got to thinking
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinking

Now I'm painting the house and I'm mending the fence
I guess I gone out and lost all my good sense
Too much work is hard for your health
I could've died drinking, now I'm killing myself
Now I'm feeding the dog, sacking the trash
It's honey do this, honey do that
I sobered up, and I got to thinking
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinking

Now I'm fixing the sink and I'm mowing the grass
You made me a list and I'm busting my...wheel
All broke down, tail's been (or talespin??) dragging
It's a tough ol' life up here on the wagon
Now I'm feeding the dog, sacking the trash
It's honey do this, honey do that
I sobered up, and I got to thinking
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinking
Yeah, I sobered up, and I got to thinking
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinking
