The World Is Round - Rufus Thomas

The world is round

But it’s crooked just the same, yeah, yeah

I know the world is round

But it’s crooked just the same, yeah, yeah

And you’ll never, never know

Just what man there is to blame, yeah, yeah

Wait a minute

I want to tell you something

'Cause there’s the teacher

The preacher, gamblin' man

Dark side will make it On a easy plan

Lawyer, doctor

Even town breaker

I’m tryin' to keep up With the undertaker

Chauffeur’s runnin' around

With them still knockin' for girls

Drummer in the band

Been this way to the world

We just end up pooping

Jumpin' up and down

Sisters in the corner

I’m Alabama bound

The world is round, round, round, round

But it’s crooked just the same, yeah, yeah

And you never, never know

Just what man there is to blame, no, no I know, you know, they know

That the world is round

I know you know, everybody know

That the world is round

The world is round, oh, yeah

The world is round
