Bad Day

(Waylon Jennings)



I guess it all started when I woke up

This morning everything seemed okay

Till I let my pet snake get loose in the kitchen

Now I've been in trouble all day.



I got some paint on the wall a pretty orange color

And a little on the carpet and floor

I covered it up with mom's coat from the closet

That she says she can't wear anymore.



I've had a bad, bad day

Not like I thought it would be

I've had a bad, bad day

It seems like everyone's picking on me.

I put some sand in my grandpa's tobacco

And he frowned at me all day

Then I hid his pipe 'cause it smells when he smokes it

He shouldn't smoke anyway.



So between mom's coat and my granpa's tobacco

Life can be rough on a kid

They've almost worn out the seat of my britches

It don't hurt much now, but it did.



I've had a bad, bad day

Not like I thought it would be

I've had a bad, bad day

It seems like everyone's picking on me.



I've had a bad, bad day

Not like I thought it would be

I've had a bad, bad day

It seems like everyone's picking on me...
