Stupid Man

Stupid man, hitchhiking out of a good life

He says: "catch you when ..."

And he thinks he's got big, big planes

Gonna build a house upon some land

Oh, casey, don't it make you crazy

Oh, when you're living all alone by that damp water

Oh, casey, don't it make you crazy

When you're living all alone by those still waters

Please say hello, please say hello

To my little baby daughter

Oh, casey, tell her that her father's gonna be coming home

So soon, so soon to see her

Well, i'm shooting down the turnpike

With a driver doing ninety-five or maybe more

Don't you think he's loaded, drunk

Or the many things that lifes are for

Oh, casey, oh, casey, don't you know

I'll make you so damn crazy

Living all alone by those waters

But please say hello

But please say hello to my little baby daughter

Please, please, won't you just give her a great, big kiss

And tell her daddy, stupid daddy will be coming home soon

Oh, casey, oh, casey don't you know, i make me so damn crazy

When i was living there, all alone by those still waters

But please tell, please tell my baby baby baby daughter

That i'm tied up now,

But i'll be home soon, i'll be the daddy that i oughta

Please say hello, oh casey, please say hello

From a stupid man

Still my little baby daughter a big, big, big kiss

And tell her that her daddy will be coming home soon

But, casey, don't you know i make me so damn crazy

When i was living there all alone

But won't you please give my,

Give my baby daughter a great, big, stupid kiss

And tell her that her stupid father will be coming home soon
