[Verse 1]
A D
Now when the good ole holidays roll around, I'm the kind of a guy that likes to be found
E A
Just takin it easy and layin around doin' nothin'
A D
But I take my chair and sit on the lawn, and just when all my cares are gone
E A
About a million bugs start carryin on, and I'm cussin'
A D
Some caterpillar from up some tree decides as far as he can see
E A
There's nothin to do but to fall on me, the damn worm
A D
And a dirty ole fly just makin it clear, that he ain't had a bath for over a year
E A
So he's takin' one now in my glass of beer to lose germs
[Chorus]
A D A D E
Bugs, bugs, bugs, if I had them all in jugs
E
I'd dig, dig, dig, till a big, big hole was dug, dug, dug, dug
A
And that would be the end of the bug song
E A
That would be the end of the bug song
[Verse 2]
A D
Well, I try to sleep when I get the chance, but you just can't trust them cursed ants
E A
They're never satisfied till they're in your pants and you're crawlin'
A D
With a spider web right across the face, I'm lookin around for a better place
E A
Till a couple of hornets take up the chase and I'm howlin'
A D
Well, I head for the house and I hold my breath, till I find some stuff in the medicine chest
E A
For the welts I got on the spot you guessed, where I'm sittin'
A D
And the wife gets mad cause I forgot, to get stuff for the fleas our kitten caught
E A
Off some old dog on the neighbours lot and she's rippin'
[Chorus]
A D A D E
Bugs, bugs, bugs, if I had them all in jugs
E
I'd dig, dig, dig, till a big, big hole was dug, dug, dug, dug
A
And that would be the end of the bug song
E A
That would be the end of the bug song
[Verse 3]
A D
Well I chased that moth from the middle drawer, that chewed the clothes I useta wore
E A
And I jammed my thumb on the bedroom door tryin to catch'em
A D
And I'm sure the mosquitoes all know their skill, 'cause one pryed up my windowsill
E A
And he limped through the air with a broken drill and I'm scratchin'
A D
You might think I'm a little bit rough, 'cause I don't take to that nature stuff
E A
But I think I've just about had enough of them bugs
A D
Now your backyard might be okay, but I'm goin' down to buy some spray
E A
Cause my little place is walkin away with them bugs
[Chorus]
A D A D E
Bugs, bugs, bugs, if I had them all in jugs
E
I'd dig, dig, dig, till a big, big hole was dug, dug, dug, dug
A
And that would be the end of the bug song
E A
That would be the end of the bug song
[Outro]
E
I'm gonna dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig...
