Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't fret now, baby
Don't be so tired
No mope, mope, mope-a-dope
No mope, mope, mope-a-dope
No, it's not as bad as all of that
No, it's not as bad as all of that
Bad as, bad as, Bad as all of that
Don't be no misery goat
[Verse 2]
I could cry
I could just cry
I, I tried, I cried for the love of God
Oh, the tears fall down
I've got one bright hope (One bright hope, one bright hope)
I've got one bright hope (One bright hope, one bright hope)
[Verse 3]
I sang three songs and marched around
I sang three songs and marched around
Marched around, marched around, marched around, marched around
I sang
[Verse 4]
Well, looky here
Oh, looky here, now
Here comes our poetry
I'm a cave with the wind inside
I'm a shell with the sound of the surf inside
What, what's the point? What's the point, huh?
Don't be no misery goat
[Verse 5]
I've got one bright hope (One bright hope, one bright hope)
I've got one bright hope (One bright hope, one bright hope)
[Verse 6]
Root 'em up Tex
Put 'em up
Work those doggies
