Muskrat, Muskrat, wha makes your head so slick?
I've been a-livin' in the water so long, it's a wonder
I ain't sick, I ain't sick, I ain't sick...
Well, Groundhog, Groundhog, why is your back so brown?
It's a wonder I don't smother to d**h from livin'
In the ground, in the ground, in the ground...
Jaybird, Jaybird, why do you fly so high?
I've been eatin them acerns all my life, it's a
wonder I don't die, I don't die, I don't die...
Now, rooster, rooster, why is your claw so hard?
I've been scratchin' in the barnlot all my life, and it's a wonder
I ain't tired, I ain't tired, I ain't tired...
Well, tomcat, old tomcat, why is your tail so long?
I been a-cussin' and a-fightin' all my life, it's a wonder
It ain't gone, it ain't gone, it ain't gone...
