My job is tough and I work hard, but I’m grateful for employment.  
Yeah I’m a slave, my job is rough; at least I got employment.  
Now my workday’s done, it’s time for fun  
But I’m too tired for enjoyment.

Learning to play the gee-tar  
Trying to strum and play  
Learning to play the gee-tar baby  
But my fingers get in the way!

Sittin’ in my office  
Really gots to pee  
But the john is too far gone  
The walk’s over two hunnert feet

So I crosses my legs  
I jiggles my feet  
I squirm and I squirm  
But I don’t leave my seat

That’s cuz’ I’m lazy, woman  
I jes hope it ain’t too late  
That’s right I’m lazy, ol’ hoss  
Too lazy to urinate

Here we go again: it’s the story of my life.  
Here we go again: it’s the story of my life.  
This lovely gal comes on to me…  
But she’s someone else’s wife.

I’m feelin’ sad and weary.  
Feel like I’m in a rut.  
That man I been lovin’,  
Won’t let me near his butt.

He gives me all his kisses,  
And all his dicky too.  
But he won’t give me no booty,  
To chase away these blues.

🆒

Them Anal Blues by **hillbilly queen** I really didn’t mind.  
So she’s a little kinky-- the gal’s still mighty kind.  
If she ever got the notion to come and visit me  
The **queen** is always welcome to play with my behind.

Too much steak and onion

A little ice cream I did eat.  
A bit of apple pie.  
A plateful of caesar salad.  
a half gallon of milk.

I’ve got those overeatin blues.

First time I fixed you dinner, you said you loved my cookin’  
But now you up an’ gone, babe  
And left me sad an’ shooken.

You cried me a river and I cried a river, too  
You cried me a river and I cried a river, too  
Yeah, you cried me a river, babe  
Cuz I fried a liver for you.

I like shagging sheep  
I like shagging sheep  
I’ve got those… sheep shagging blues

I like to drive them home  
I like to hear them moan  
I like to shag them in my car  
I like to hear them baaaaaaa…

I like shagging sheep  
I like shagging sheep  
I’ve got those… sheep shagging bluuuues!  
(I swear I did not write this! Copyright belongs to an English bloke I met. When we used to drink, he would break out the guitar and and this song. Classic!)
