Lyrics[edit]
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- I've a fancy suit,
- And a clean white shirt,
- But I miss the days when tractor fumes,
- Blew up my skirt.
- I was freezing cold,
- And I slept in mold,
- But I long for the shack where I lived.
- She was true to me,
- My old home of wood,
- And when I passed out drunk from turpentine,
- She understood.
- Life was so sublime.
- Mr. Largo:
- Well, boo hoo, cuz I'm,
- Hanging ferns in the shack where you lived!
