Ugly Brown
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Nobody loves me in this town this town this town
Nobody loves me in this town this town this town
To their parties they never invite me even my own dog bites me
And they call me they call me Ugly Brown
Nobody wants me in this town this town this town
Nobody wants me in this town this town this town
I won't swim in the river and that's a fact
Cause every time I come out you keep a throwin' me back
And you call me you call me Ugly Brown
[ harmonica ]
Nobody needs me in this town this town this town
Nobody needs me in this town this town this town
If I run away and hide where nobody can see
Then nobody comes and looks for me
And they call me they call me Ugly Brown
**********
(Saturday night in Trouble is probably the best time of the week
Most of the people come into town and they buy enough flour and salt
To last while then they stay and visit some
We got this bench that sits out in front of Maude Growdy's store
That's where most of the men do their sittin' whittlin' spittin' and story tellin'
And some of the stories they tell I'll tell you right now
Some of the are just awful hard to believe
You take a couple Saturday nights ago this man was tellin' us all about
How he got his first wife)
