[Verse 1]


Woke up this m

ornin'
             
And thought I 

    
was fine

Walked in the 

kitchen
  
A quarter to n

ine

Poured me some

 coffee
            
Read me some n

ews

When I looked 

up
             
All hell broke

 
 loose

There's a hole

 in the roof

It's coming ri

ght through
              
The water's al

       
l gone cold
              
Heater's makin

  
' noise again
             
And the bread'

              
s all growin' 

 
mold

[Chorus]

             
Songbird singi

           
n' in that old

 oak tree
    
I'm lookin' up

 at you
       
You're lookin'

 down on me
             
I promise you 

              
this really ai

             
n't as bad as 

       
it may seem
             
I'm livin' the

         
 American Drea

[Verse 2]

             
I hate to let 

           
my old lady do

wn
              
This time I to

       
ok her out on 

the town
             
If I had my wa

             
y, I'd give he

      
r the world
              
Lord only know

             
s how I love t

    
hat girl

But the yard n

eeds mowin'

Bills need pay

in'
              
Phone's ringin

          
g off the line
              
I got me a lis
