G C
Up in the morning, work like a dog
D C G
Is better than sitting like a bump on a log
G C
Mind all your manners, be quiet as a mouse
D C G
Some day you'll own a home that's as big as a house
I know a fella, he eats like a horse
Knocks his old balls 'round the old golf course
You oughta see his wife, she's a cute little dish
She smokes like a chimney and drinks like a fish
G
There's a big old goofy man
C
Dancing with a big old goofy girl
D
Ooooh baby
D G
It's a big old goofy world
Now elvis had a woman with a head like a rock
I wished I had a woman that made my knees knock
She'd sing like an angel and eat like a bird
And if I wrote a song, she'd know ever single word
Chorus
Instrumental break
Kiss a little baby, give the world a smile
And if you take an inch, give 'em back a mile
Cause if you lie like a rug and you don't give a damn
You're never gonna be as happy as a clam
I'm sitting in a hotel, tryin' to write a song
My head is just as empty as the day is long
Why it's clear as a bell, I should have gone to school
I'd be wise as an owl, 'stead of stubborn as a mule
Chorus
Ooooh baby - it's big old goofy world
