Sorry about your mama
Sorry about your papa
Sorry about the business
With your brother-in-law
Hard cheese about the money man
Hard cheese about the stock
Hard cheese about you being
Up to your ears in hock
Tough luck about your luggage
Tough luck about your socks
Tough luck about the way
That the other shoe drops
Too bad about your girlfriend
Too bad about your wife
Too bad about the thing
You call the rest of your life, hey
[Chorus]
How'd you get this number man
Who do you think you're talking to
Now who do you think you're kidding
What do you want me to do
How you get this number man
Please don't make me laugh
You know you ought a be on tv
With a line like that
[Verse 2]
Hey, I heard about the car wreck
I heard about the fight
I heard about the time
You in jail all night
I know you don't like trouble
And I know you don't like to fight
I know that you can argue
With a fence post all night
I heard about the lamp shade
I heard you had it on your head
I heard you told a joke
And knocked the whole room dead
No kidding about the cough syrup
No kidding about the junk
No kidding about you been
In a deep blue funk
[Chorus]
