Nut Bolts And Screws
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.
Roll it on, roll it on
Cold funny farm ain't no home
Joe was sittin' there on his own
Sittin' there a pissin', missin' all the kissin'
Wishin' that he wasn't alone
Chorus
I heard it on the news, I heard it on the news
Nut bolts and screws, I heard it on the news
I heard it on the news, I heard it on the news
Nut bolts and screws, I heard it on the news
All of the cuckoos at rest
One flies away from the nest
Finds himself a cutie, a rootin-tootin beauty
She make the hair stand up on his chest
Chorus
I heard it on the news, I heard it on the news
Nut bolts and screws, I heard it on the news
I heard it on the news, I heard it on the news
Nut bolts and screws, I heard it on the news
All he needed was a little female company
Just to help him take away some of the misery
All he wanted was a little bit of ecstasy
Be sure they're right behind him be sure they caught up on him, and oh
Joe he got a shot in the arm
And now he's sleepin' back at the farm
Still knows he can do it I guess he always knew it
He never done nobody no harm
Chorus
I heard it on the news, I heard it on the news
Nut bolts and screws, I heard it on the news
I heard it on the news, I heard it on the news
Nut bolts and screws, I heard it on the news
I heard it on the news, I heard it on the news
Nut bolts and screws, nut bolts and screws
Extra, extra, read all about it
Nut bolts and screws, nut bolts and screws
Extra, extra, read all about it
Paper, paper, let me teach ya
Read all about it
