ROWDY SOUL




(A Work Song)

------- CHORUS -------

I'm a Rowdy Soul, I'm a Rowdy Soul
And I don't care wheter I work or not.
I'm a Rowdy Soul, I'm a Rowdy Soul
And I don't care wheter I work or not.


Well, come here dog and get your bone,
And tell me which shoulder do you want it on?
A penny off and a penny on One more load and I'll be gone.

------- CHORUS -------

Well, I didn't plant no corn this year,
Didn't plant no beans or tomatoes.
I didn't plant no corn this year,
But damn them Irish potatoes.

------- CHORUS -------

I saw the Captain's coat,
Just hangin' up on the wall.
I stol the Captain's coat
And I wore it to the fancy dress ball.

------- CHORUS -------

Next time I build my house,
Gonna, build my chimney higher.
Mud-daubbers swarmin around,
Gonna' put me outta my fire.

------- CHORUS -------

Pass that jug around here son,
And I'll tell you a story,
About things with claws that scratch and bite
Like women, mean and whorey.

------- CHORUS (X 2) -------
