lyrics

I never claim to work hard as anyone
Got a slow bone runnin' through
When all the laundry's done
And the dishes are dry
I just fold my hands and wipe my brow
Lay down and die

I never claim to be as smart as anyone
Might be just slow don't you know
Always trying to figure out
Where the next foot goes
And a billfold with no bills to hold
Is all I know

The longer the day less I do seems to be
Very little motivates me
But hearing the sound of your voice
Cleans me up inside
And I'll dress up nice and buy you flowers
Fix your sink and call you honey

Just fold my hands and wipe my brow
Lay down and die
