Everybody Got Some But Me (Tame Recorded Version)
Shel Silverstein
Well, now a millionaire came round today
And started givin' dollar bills away
While everyone was grabbin' it where was I?
I was home nappin'!
So everybody got some but me.
I say: everybody's got some but me
Yeah, everybody's got some but me
I mean Shorty and Bill, Gimpy and Lil,
Everybody but me.
So I said, I don't mind bein' poor,
'Cause I have a woman whose heart is so pure;
And she is innocent and mild as a newborn child,
When I told all my friends they said "Sure!"
'Cause it seems:
Everybody's got some but me
Yeah, everybody's got some but me
I mean Shorty and Bill, Gimpy and Lil,
Everybody but me.
Well now that's the way my world keeps goin' round,
But I keep smilin' even though I'm down;
And I'm tellin' all you weasels,
It turned out that gal has measles,
And there's a big epidemic gonna hit this town.
Everybody's got some but me
Yeah, everybody's got some but me
I mean Shorty and Bill, Gimpy and Lil,
Everybody but me.
