bobby darin - everything’s okay lyrics

Loading...

now i went to the country
just the other day
to see my uncle bill
and pass some time away
i asked how’d he’d been
since last i passed his way
and he rubbed his chin
and that’s what he had to say

he said, my wife’s been sick
my youngins too
and i’m darn near down
with the instamatic flu
the cows gone dry
and my hens won’t lay
but we’re still living
everything’s okay

he said the hogs took the cholera
and they’ve all done died
the bees got mad
and they left the hive
the weevils got the corn
and the rain got the hay
but we’re still living
so everything’s okay
he said the porch rotted down
that’s more expense
the darned old mule
tore down the fence
the mortgage is due
and i can’t pay
but we’re still living
so everything’s okay

now the cow broke in the field
and eat up the beans
and the durn rabbits
they got the turnip greens
and my ma+in+law
just moved in to stay
but we’re still living
so everything’s okay

now my land’s so poor
so hard and yeller
you have to set on a sack of fertilizer
to raise an umbrella
and it rains out here
just about every day
but we’re still living
so everything’s okay
now the well’s gone dry
and i got to tote the water
up from the spring
about a mile and a quarter
my helper, he quit
for the lack of pay
but we’re still living
so everything’s okay

now the house it leaks
and it needs a new top
and every time it rains
it wets everything we got
the chimney fell down
just the other day
but we’re still living
so everything’s okay

the corn meals gone
and the meat’s run out
got nothing to k!ll
to put in the smokehouse
the preacher’s coming sunday
to spend the day
but we’re still living
so everything’s okay
in fact if things were not better
i’d like to lay me down and die
