| Just when I was healthy, I started off to bed Next morning I was sleepy, and couldn't lift my head An elephant sat down, heavy on my chest Lord, have mercy, cause I needed all my rest My face looked like a balloon, I hoped it would pop The drumming in my ear just wouldn't stop Cowboy came in to see if I was okay Nope, my dear Cowboy, just leave me alone today I thought it would be only a day or two Then I knew I could get back to all of you I laid there watching TV, cause I couldn't read a book Thank God we had no visitors cause of the way I look Now y'all know that I can't be left alone with Bear He sat at the foot of the bed, wanting me out there Buffy wasn't far from him, she sat on the floor next to me I reckon I could be in misery, cause soon I had all three I went to the doctor's, and guess what he said? Now, Sweetie, drink lots of liquids, and stay in bed! I had to teach Cowboy a thing or two He'd have to get things right, and get back to you I went back to the Doctor, more pills for me to take I thought I could open a pharmacy here, for Pete's sake Eardrops, cough medicine, anit-biotics, he gave I could hardly speak, so I gave him a wave Back to see the Doctor just one more time Didn't he realize he was no help to this body of mine Finally he sent me to an ENT nearby Thank God I was getting somewhere, cause all I did was cry Now that Doctor gave me nose spray, and said get well Three weeks with this stuff, I wanted to crawl into a shell Cowboy said folks are praying for ya, Reb, what more could you ask He was really surprised as he accomplished this great task Then my computer crashed, I was really a mess I wanted to strangle someone, that I must confess Did ya know when you call Dell, they're in Milan over there I asked if they believed in God, cause they must answer my prayer Three days I spent here, so many techs I'd spoken to I wondered if they spoke American, and that's so true Finally I told them I wanted by money back I reached someone who knew something, he got me on the track |
