I know there's never been a man in the awful  shape I'm in 
             C                 D7              G7 
I can't even spell my name, my heads in such a spin 
  C                                         C7    F 
Today I tried to eat a steak with a big old table spoon 
                            C 
You got me chasin' rabbits, walkin' on my hands 
    G7             C 
And howlin' at the moon. 
  
Well Sug, I took one look at you and it almost drove me mad 
And then I even went and lost what little sense I had 
Now I can't tell the day from night, I'm crazy as a loon 
You got me chasin' rabbits, pullin' out my hair and howlin' at the moon. 
 
Some friends of mine asked me to go out on a huntin' spree 
'Cause there ain't a hound dog in this state that can hold a light to me 
I eat three bones for dinner today, then tried to tree a 'Coon 
You got me chasin' rabbits, scratchin' fleas and howlin' at the moon. 
 
I rode my horse to town to day and a gas pump we did pass 
I pulled 'im up and I hollered WHOA!, said fill 'im up with gas 
The man picked up a monkey wrench and WHAM!, he changed my tune 
You got me chasin' rabbits, spittin' out teeth and howlin' at the moon. 
 
I never thought in this old world a fool could fall so hard 
But honey baby, when I fell the whole world must have jarred 
I think I'd quit my doggish ways if you'd take me for your groom 
You got me chasin rabbits, pickin' out rings and howlin' at the moon.
