Hank Williams — Howlin at the Moon

I know there's never been a man in the awful shape I'm in I can't even spell my name, my heads in such a spin To-day I tried to eat a steak with a big old table-spoon You got me chasin' rabbits, walkin' on my hands and howlin' at the moon Well, I took one look at you and it almost drove me mad And then I even went and lost what little sense I had Now I can't tell the day from night, I'm crazy as a loon You got me chasin' rabbits, pullin' out my hair and howlin' at the moon Some friends of mine asked me to go out on a huntin' spree Cause there ain't a hound dog in this state that can hold a light to me I ate three bones for dinner today, then tried to tree a 'coon You got me chasin' rabbits, scratchin' fleas and howlin' at the moon I rode my horse to town to day and a gas pump we did pass I pulled 'im up and I hollered whoa, said fill 'im up with gas The man picked up a monkey wrench and wham, he changed my tune You got me chasin' rabbits, spittin' out teeth and howlin' at the moon I never thought in this old world a fool could fall so hard But honey baby, when I fell the whole world must have jarred I think I'd quit my doggish ways if you'd take me for your groom You got me chasin' rabbits, pickin' out rings and howlin' at the moon
