I'm Gonna Tell on You - Jerry Jeff Walker

I’m gonna tell on you

Tell all the people what you do

Yes I’m gonna tell on the whole round world

Just exactly what it is that you do, yes you do!

I’ve got to tell how you inspect

Everything I like how you reject

With your law books on your shelf you protect me from myself

And that’s exactly how it is, thank you much!

You tax me hard, You take my cash

What is left you tell me make it last

Sit down and sip your beer and be thankful you live here

And that’s just exactly what he said

You take away everything I smoke

You say it’s bad it’ll make me cough and choke

It’s cancerous you’re bound to die. It’s dangerous you might get high

And that’s just exactly what he said

The pope he said the pill’s no good

Only do it when you think you should

But we’re overpopulated. Then a longer skirt is needed

Yes and that’s just exactly what he said

I’ve got to tell how you made fun

You lock me up if I’ve been havin some

You bust into my meetin', on my head you start a beatin'

And that’s just exactly what you do
