lyrics

Gravy's too runny, eggs are too greasy
Bacon is burnt, and the coffee's too weak
They won't give credit, you know they won't take checks
Or confederate money or even Raleigh coupons

My bed's too lumpy, you know my pillow's too fluffy
Black and white tv, it only gets three channels
My maid's so fat, you know she don't speak English
Yeah, she talks pretty funny and don't smile very much

I need four walls and three square meals
Two loving arms and one good feel
Time won't fix what sleep can't heal
Other than that, I really can't complain

But my reefer broke down somewhere north of Nogales
Nineteen tones of lettuce, ninety-nine degrees
The pavement's so hot, you know my wheels are a-humming
This is some oasis, Lord, I sure miss Texas

I need four walls and three square meals
Two loving arms and one good feel
Time won't fix what sleep can't heal
Other than that, I really can't complain

I need four walls and three square meals
Free local calls and eighteen wheels
My engine stalls and my brakes squeal
Other than that, I really can't complain

Gravy's too runny, eggs are too greasy
Bacon is burnt, and the coffee's too weak
