You Ain’t Much Fun Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I used to come home late and not a minute too soon
Barking like a dog, howling at the moon
You'd be mad as an ol' red hen, up all night wonderin' where I'd been
I'd fall down and say come help me honey
You laughed out loud, I guess you thought it was funny
But I sobered up and I got to thinkin'
Girl, you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'

[Verse 2]
Now I'm paintin' the house and I'm mendin' the fence
I guess I gone out and lost all my good sense
Too much work is hard for your health
I could've died drinkin', now I'm killing myself
And I'm feedin' the dog, sackin' the trash
It's honey do this, honey do that
I sobered up and I got to thinkin'
Girl, you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'

[Verse 3]
Now I'm fixin' the sink and I'm mowin' the grass
You made me a list and I'm bustin' my, well
All broke down, tailspin draggin'
It's a rough ol' life up here on the wagon
Now I'm feedin' the dog, sackin' the trash
It's honey do this, honey do that
I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'
Girl, you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'
Yeah, I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'
Girl, you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
