A 1: I used to come home late and not a minute too soon E Barking like a dog, howling at the moon Asus You'd be mad as an ol' red hen, up all night wonderin' where I been D I'd fall down and say come help me honey A B You laughed outloud, I guess you thought it was funny E I sobered up, and I got to thinkin' A NC Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin' D Chourus1: Now I'm paintin' the house and I'm mendin' the fence A I guess I gone out and lost all my good sense B Too much work is hard for your health E I could've died drinkin', now I'm killing myself A Now I'm feedin' the dog, sackin' the trash E It's honey do this, honey do that E I sobered up, and I got to thinkin' A NC Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin' (instrumental break over chorus chords) C2 Now I'm fixin' the sink and I'm mowin' the grass You made me a list and I'm bustin' my...wheel All broke down, tail's been draggin' It's a tough ol' life up here on the wagon Now I'm feedin' the dog, sackin' the trash It's honey do this, honey do that I sobered up, and I got to thinkin' Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin' Yeah, I sobered up, and I got to thinkin' Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'
