Lyrics

I woke up, I was feeling calm,
till I scratched my eye with some Tiger Balm.
My eyes were flaming, couldn't see a thing,
so I rubbed in some Iodine, thought it was Visine.
Well, my folks say I should get a part time job,
it ain't easy, I'm a lazy slob.
Stepped in the shit bucket on my way,
guess I won't get no job today.

CHORUS
Horse manure on my shoes,
I tell you what, I got the shit bucket blues.

Well, my lady took me to the five and dime,
said, buy some nice clothes so you look fine,
cause you look like a hog, you smell like a pig.
I just gazed into space and took another swig
of that shit bucket booze.
Well, if you're hungry, so I've heard
invest your money at the hummingbird,
eggs and grits, one fifty-nine,
they don't take long, they come out on time.

CHORUS

When something's wrong I just say, fuck it,
then kick over my shit bucket.

Well, horse manure on my shoes,
I tell you what, I got the eine kleine shit bucket blues.
