Loudon plays this on the banjo & picks out the melody. I've tried to do the same with the guitar. This is repeated throughout the whole song.

Dump the dog & feed the garbage
A D
Mow the floor & sweep the lawn
D Dsus4 D
Salt & pepper on my porridge
A D
Some day I'll be dead & gone

Oh my good girl loves me madly & my bad girl is a flirt
I'll take the good with the bad gladly
And I'll treat them both like dirt

Bread & butter for my breakfast, peanut butter for my lunch
Apple butter for my dinner
Marjorine for Sunday brunch

Baseball's fine Football's rougher basketballers are all tall
But I like hockey, hockey's tougher
You must play without a ball

It's too much bother & too much trouble, I have stood all I can stand
I'm a son & I'm a father
I am just a middle man

When I wake up in the morning I hop up right out of bed
Unless of course I am hung over
Then I pretend that I am dead

Repeat Verse 1
