( CHORUS )
Everybody’s got troubles and it seems I’ve got
them all
Somewhere the sun is shining somewhere the
rain must fall
Everybody’s got troubles on this you must
agree
For when the sun shines down on you it always
rains on me
( MONOLOGUE )
Coming home from town today, the old truck
begin to knock
The engine gave a wheezy snort, and a rod went
through the block
No bailing wire could fix it, so I had to
leave it lay
It was just my luck, they’d tarred the road
and I walked barefoot all the way
( MONOLOGUE )
The bill collector was coming round with bills
I couldn’t pay
So I went to hide in a picture show, just to
pass the time of day
The fellow sitting next to me said I hope that
you don’t mind
But here’s a summons for you Hal, You’ve been
awfully hard to find
( MONOLOGUE )
I ran a red light the other day and knocked an
old guy of his feet
So I blew a little smoke on him, right there
on the street
I thought the day I went to court that my
lawyer couldn’t fail
But the old cat I’d hit was the County Judge
and I got sixty days in jail
