I began to get cross eyed
I thought I was lost
I'd (D major) be (G major) gun to see things as (C major) they ain't.
As the relatives gathered
to see what's the matter
The doctor came to see was I fine. (D major)

He was surfin' when he hit me but
jumped off his board to get me

armpit (C major) like a child's toy
As we staggerd into land with all the

We tried to mooch a towel
from the (F major) hoi poloi
He emptied out his eardrums,
I emptied out mine

jug band music
It seems to (F major) make him (G major) feel just fine

Verse 5
And the (C major) doctor said give
him jug band music
It seems to (F major) make him (G major) feel just fine.
