Lyrics:
Recorded by hank williams, sr. Words and music by hank williams, sr. I [g] went to the country - just [c] the other day To see [d7] my uncle bill and sorta [g] pass the time away I asked him how hed been - since [c] last, Id passed his way He rubbed his [d7] chin - heres what he had [g] to say. My wifes been sick - the [c] youngns, too And I'm [d7] durn near - down [g] with the flu The cows gone dry - and them [c] hens wont lay But - [d7] were still a-livin - so ever-[g] things okay. The hogs took the cholera and theyve all done died The bees got mad - and they left the hive The weevils got the corn and the rain rotted the hay But - were still a-livin - so everthings okay. The porch rotted down - that's more expense The durned old mule - he tore down the fence The mortgage is due and - I can't pay But - were still a-livin - so everthings okay. The cow broke in the field and eat up the beans The durn rabbits - they got the turnip greens And my ma-in-law just moved in to stay But - were still a-livin - so everthings okay. My lands so poor - so hard and yeller You have to set on a sack of fetilizer to raise an umbreller And it rains out here - nearly ever day But - were still a-livin - so everthings okay. The wells gone dry and I have to tote the water Up from the spring - about a mile and a quarter My helper, he quit - for the lack of pay But - were still a-livin - so everthings okay. The house it leaks - it needs a new top When it rains - it wets everthing we got The chimney fell down - just yesterday But - were still a-livin - so everthings okay. The corn meals gone and the meats run out Got nothin to kill to put in the smokehouse The preachers comin sunday - to spend the day But - were still a-livin - so everthings okay. The canned stuffs spoiled - else the jars got broke And all we got left is one old billy goat Were gonna have a new baby about the first of may But - were still a-livin - so everthings okay. My crop it rotted - in the ground I asked for another loan but the banker turned me down But - were still a-livin and were prayin for better days So - after all, everthings in purty good shape.
