lyrics

I got a cow that don't give milk
Just gives me
Cans and cans of kerosene
I got a cow that don't give milk
Just gives me
Cans and cans of kerosene
I got a barn that don't burn
And a farm cat
She's awful mean

Well I got two wells that's poison
And a rooster
He don't crow
Well I got two wells that's poison
And a rooster
He don't crow
I got a barn that don't burn
Just in case, now
You don't know

I got a trained rattlesnake
And a heart-shaped
Swimming pool
I got a trained rattlesnake
And a heart-shaped
Swimming pool
I got a barn that don't burn
Get yourself
Another fool

Well I'm bad luck, fun, and danger
All rolled up Into one
Well I'm bad luck, fun, and danger
All rolled up Into one
I got a barn that don't burn
But the night's still
Mighty young
