V1: A I used to come home late and not a minute too soon
E Barking like a dog, howling at the moon
You'd be mad as an ol' red hen, A up all night wonderin' where I been
D I'd fall down and say come help me honey
A You laughed outloud, I guess you B thought it was funny
E I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'
A N.C.
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'
C1: D Now I'm paintin' the house and I'm mendin' the fence
A I guess I gone out and lost all my good sense
B Too much work is hard for your health
E I could've died drinkin', now I'm killing myself
A Now I'm feedin' the dog, sackin' the trash
E It's honey do this, honey do that
E I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'
A N.C.
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'
(instrumental break over chorus chords)
C2: Now I'm fixin' the sink and I'm mowin' the grass
You made me a list and I'm bustin' my...wheel
All broke down, tail's been (or talespin??) draggin'
It's a tough ol' life up here on the wagon
Now I'm feedin' the dog, sackin' the trash
It's honey do this, honey do that
I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'
Yeah, I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'
