FLY TROUBLE –
Did you ever sit straight up in bed with somethin’ a circling round your head
And you swat at it as it whizzes by, and it’s just one pesky little fly
You shake your head and twitch your nose and settle down in sweet repose
And when you’re just about to doze . . . fly trouble
(SING) Buzz, buzz, buzz goes that busy little fly
Buzz, buzz, buzz, he’s takin’ off to hide
You roll a paper up nice and tight and wait around for him to light
But there’s a fly that’s a livin’ right – buzz, buzz, buzz
BREAK
Now the toughest hide grows on a mule ‘cause he’s a bulky, stuborn fool
He likes to look at you and glare and never even move a hair
But when his muscles start to twitch and when his tail begins to swish
That mule ain’t bothered with an itch . . . fly trouble
(SING) Buzz, buzz, buzz goes that busy little pest
Buzz, buzz, buzz, that mule can’t get no rest
He stakes his head and bats his eye and kicks his heels up to the sky
Did you ever see a jass ack cry? Buzz, buzz, buzz
BREAK
Now you pick a perfect night in June with flowers bloomin’ ‘neath the moon
And your light of love is burnin’ bright and you tell yourself tonight’s the night
You brace yourself and your courage grows an on your knees where you’ll propose
When somethin’ bites you on the nose . . . fly trouble
(SING) Buzz, buzz, buzz goes that busy little thing
Buzz, buzz, buzz you swat and lose the ring
You fan the air as he goes by and stick your finger in your eye
Hit everything except that fly – buzz, buzz, buzz
