The first night that I come home
4 5 5 -4 4 5
So drunk I could not see
5 6 6 6 -6 5 4
Found a horse in my stable
4 3 4 5 -4 4
Where my horse oughta be
4 4 4 4 5 5
Come here my little wifey
5 5 5 -4 4 5
Explain this thing to me
5 6 6 6 6 -6 5 4
How come a horse in the stable
4 3 4 5 -4 4
Where my horse oughta be?

You blind fool, you crazy fool
5 5 -4 4 5
Can't you never see?
5 5 6 -6 5 4
It's only a milkcow
4 3 4 5 -4 4
You're granny sent to me

I've traveled this world over
5 5 5 -4 4 5
Ten thousand miles or more
5 5 5 5 6 6 -6 5 4 4
But a saddle upon a milkcow's back
4 3 4 4 5 -4 4
I never did see before

The second night that I come home
So drunk I could not see
Found a coat a-hanging on the rack
Where my coat oughta be
Come here my little wifey
Explain this thing to me
How come a coat a hanging a
hanging on the rack
Where my coat oughta be?
You blind fool, you crazy fool
Can't you never see?
It's only a bedquilt
You're granny sent to me
I've traveled this world over
Ten thousand miles or more
Pockets upon a bedquilt
I never did see before
The third night that I come home
So drunk I could not see
Found a head a-laying on the pillow
Where my head oughta be
Come here my little wifey
Explain this thing to me
How come a head a-laying on the pillow
Where my head oughta be?
You blind fool, you crazy fool
Can't you never see?
It's only a cabbage head
You're granny sent to me
I've traveled this world over
Ten thousand miles or more
But a moustache on a cabbage head
I never did see before
