 Subject: So You Think You've Got Troubles; by Marvin Rainwater; Grandpa Jones
      
 Hi Y'all,
 Sheila Allen asked for a song her dad sang to her - "Build me a bar in the 
 back of my car and drive myself to drink.'  I don't know if this is it, but 
 the tag fits that line.  I believe Marvin Rainwater recorded this, and 
 perhaps Grandpa Jones.  If anyone needs help with the Nashville Numbering 
 System, see my explanation (and others) at 
 Cowpie/Resources/Lessons/NashvilleNumberSystem3.  If this doesn't do it, 
 email me at tipper194@juno.com.
 
 [If this is the right song, Sheila, I have stumbled on some more words that 
 work with it.  Let me know if you'd like them.]

 I CANT EVEN LISTEN TO A DIRTY  JOKE
 
  
 
 CAUSE ILL LAUGH AND  STRAIN MY HEART
 
  
 
 IVE HAD EVERY AILMENT KNOWN TO  MAN
 
  
 
 FROM AFRICAN MUMPS TO DISHPAN  HANDS
 
  
 
 I LOST EVERY RACE THAT I EVER  RAN
 
  
 
 I NEVER EVEN HAD A START
 
  
 
 (Verse 3)
 
  
 
 (Recite) NOW SOME PEOPLE CALL ME A  PESSIMIST
 
  
 
 THEY SAY I OUGHTA MAKE THE BEST OF  THIS
 
  
 
 WELL MAYBE I AM A  PESSIMIST
 
  
 
 THATS ONE THING I  WOULDNT KNOW
 
  
 
 BUT ONE THING I DO KNOW, ILL  TELL YOU RIGHT NOW
