Kooper
Now Iâve had a hard life
I been through two wives
And Iâve lived where the rats run wild
But now Iâm much better and Iâm writinâ this letter
Just to tell you âbout your baby child
So Ma, I been busy and I know youâve missed me
So Iâm writinâ this letter to you
I knows itâs been ten years but save up those sad tears
Mama let me tell ya whets new
Look at me Iâm back on my feet
Pulled myself right outa the street
So glad to be back on my feet right now
Iâm gettinâ smiles from the people I meet
Wontcha tell me bout Dad now
Is he still doinâ bad now
Workin in the same drugstore
Lookinâ for praise now
Did he ever get that raise now
Heâs been waitin twenty years for
And poor brother Billy is he still so silly
Livin with that girl crosstown
Livin off her job
I still love that poor slob
Tell him someday Iâll be round
Look at me Iâm back on my feet
Pulled myself right outa the street
So glad to be back on my feet right now
Iâm gettinâ smiles from the people I meet
So glad to be back on my feet
Well I married this girl she was a rich girl
Took her checkbook & a fountain pen
Wrote my name so fast now
Knew my luck couldnât last now
I wrote myself three years in the pen
So I prayed to the Saviour
Got a year off for good behavior
Read the Bible so Iâd understand
Now Iâm workinâ steady & Iâm married to Betty
Doinâ my best to be her good lovinâ man
Mama so long now I know I was wrong now
Not to write in such a long long while
But Iâll save some money and you wonât think itâs funny
If I put you & Dad up in style
Look at me Iâm back on my feet
Pulled myself right outa the street
So glad to be back on my feet right now
Iâm gettinâ smiles from the people I meet
Don't have to worry bout nothinâ to eat
Now doncha think itâs kinda neat
Ya know I pulled myself right up by the seat
Of my pants
Look at me Iâm back on my feet
