Well, a millionaire came around today
And started throwin' dollar bills away
While everyone was grabbin'
Where was I? -- Home nappin'!
That's why today I'm eatin' hay and clay.
'Cause everybody got some but me.
Everybody got some but me.
Shorty and Bill and Gimpy and Lil.
Everybody but me.
So I said, a'I don't mind bein' poor,
'Cause I have a woman so sweet, demure and pure.
And she's innocent and mild as a newborn child."
Till someone asked me, "Buddy, are you sure?"
It seems everybody got some but me.
Everybody got some but me.
Shorty and Bill and Gimpy and Lil.
Everybody but me.
So that's the way my world keeps goin' round,
But I keep smilin' even though I'm down;
And whoever would have suspected
That sweet thing was infected,
And there's an epidemic in this town.
And everybody got some but me.
Yeah, everybody's got some but me.
Shorty and Bill and Gimpy and Lil,
And pretty soon the rest of you will
Yes, everybody got some but me.
