Stompin' Tom Connors - The bug song

^A Now when the good ole holidays roll around, I'm the ^Dkind of a guy that likes to be found Just ^Etakin it easy and layin around ^Adoin' nothin' ^A But I take my chair and sit on the lawn, and ^Djust when all my cares are gone About a ^Emillion bugs start carryin on, and I'm ^Acussin' ^A Some caterpillar from up some tree de^Dcides as far as he can see There's ^Enothin to do but to fall on me, the ^Adamn worm ^A And a dirty ole fly just makin it clear, that he ^Dain't had a bath for over a year So he's ^Etakin' one now in my glass of beer to ^Alose germs

^ABugs, ^Dbugs, ^Abugs, if I ^Dhad them all in ^Ejugs ^EI'd dig, dig, dig, till a big, big hole was dug, dug, dug, dug And that would be the end of the ^Abug song ^EThat would be the end of the ^Abug song

^A Well, I try to sleep when I get the chance, but you ^Djust can't trust them cursed ants They're never ^Esatisfied till they're in your pants and you're ^Acrawlin' ^A With a spider web right across the face, I'm ^Dlookin around for a better place Till a ^Ecouple of hornets take up the chase and I'm ^Ahowlin' ^A Well, I head for the house and I hold my breath, till I ^Dfind some stuff in the medicine chest For the ^Ewelts I got on the spot you guessed, where ^AI'm sittin' ^A And the wife gets mad cause I forgot, to get ^Dstuff for the fleas our kitten caught Off ^Esome old dog on the neighbours lot and ^Ashe's rippin'

^ABugs, ^Dbugs, ^Abugs, if I ^Dhad them all in ^Ejugs ^EI'd dig, dig, dig, till a big, big hole was dug, dug, dug, dug And that would be the end of the ^Abug song ^EThat would be the end of the ^Abug song

^A Well I chased that moth from the middle drawer, that ^Dchewed the clothes I useta wore And I ^Ejammed my thumb on the bedroom door tryin to ^Acatch'em ^A And I'm sure the mosquitoes all know their skill, 'cause ^Done pryed up my windowsill And he ^Elimped through the air with a broken drill and I'm ^Ascratchin' ^A You might think I'm a little bit rough, 'cause ^DI don't take to that nature stuff But I ^Ethink I've just about had enough of them ^Abugs ^A Now your backyard might be okay, but ^DI'm goin' down to buy some spray Cause ^Emy little place is walkin away with them ^Abugs

^ABugs, ^Dbugs, ^Abugs, if I ^Dhad them all in ^Ejugs ^EI'd dig, dig, dig, till a big, big hole was dug, dug, dug, dug And that would be the end of the ^Abug song ^EThat would be the end of the ^Abug song

I'm gonna ^Edig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig...
