Fly Trouble

Did you ever sit straight up in your bedwith somethin' circlin' around your head
And you swot at it as it whizzes by it's just one pesky little fly
You shake your head and you twitch your nose and settle down to sweet repose
Then when you're just about the dose fly trouble
Buzz buzz buzz goes that busy little fly buzz buzz buzz he's takin' off and high
You roll a paper nice and tight and you wait around for him to light
Now there's a fly just livin' right buzz buzz buzz
[ piano ]
Now the toughest hide grows on the mule cause he's a balky stubborn fool
He likes to look at you and glare an' never even move one hare
But when his muscles start to twitch when his tail begins to switch
That mule ain't bothered with the itch fly trouble
Buzz buzz buzz goes that busy little pestbuzz buzz buzz that mule can't get no rest
He shakes his head and he bats his eye and kicks his heels up to the sky
Did you ever see a jazz that cry buzz buzz buzz
[ guitar ]
Now you pick yourself a perfect night in June
When all the flowers are bloomin' neath the moon
Your light of love is burnin' bright and you tell yourself tonight's the night
You brace yourself and your courage grows
And you're on your knees where you propose
When this thing bites you right on the nose fly trouble
Buzz buzz buzz goes that busy little thing
Buzz buzz buzz you swot and lose the ring
You fan the air as he goes by and stick your finger right in your eye
You hit every thing except that fly buzz buzz buzz
