I met a girl, i bought a ring
She drive me cold and now-a-now-a-now-a-now i sing
Cruel world, cruel world
Cruel world, cruel world
Old man moses held the waters back
That's when the farao done the moon boon stack
Cruel world, cruel world
Cruel world, cruel world
Humpety dumpety sat on the wall
There must have been some grease because he slipped and made a fall
Cruel world, cruel world
Cruel world, cruel world
In my cadillac, i was flying high
The light was red, i hit the brake oh-bye-oh-my-oh-my
Cruel world, cruel world
Cruel world, cruel world
Cruel world, cruel world
Cruel world, cruel world
Cruel world, cruel world
Now spin...
Cruel world, cruel world
Oh baby, smoke it...
