Artist/Band: Glenn Yarbrough
Lyrics for Song: The Bull Frog Song
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Glenn Yarbrough



Way out west in blankety blank


A bull frog jumped from bank to bank


Cause he never could find


Nothin' better to do


Well he corked all night


And he jumped all day


Till he corked and jumped his life away


Cause he never could find


Nothin' better to do


And a lot of folks are like that foolish frog of mine


Runnin' into trouble just to pass away the time


And the devil is always looking around and waitin' to grab that kind


Cause he never can find


Nothin' better to do





That frog of mine was mighty fond


Of jumpin' in his neighbors pond


Cause he never could find


Nothin' better to do


Well he jumped around to beat the band


Till he jumped into a frying pan


Cause he never could find nothin' better to do


Well all you people who sing this song


Remember why that frog went wrong


Cause he never could find


Nothin' better to do


So keep on workin' and any old pay


Till the big horn blows on judgment day


Cause you never will find


Nothin' better to do
