Words and music by hank williams, sr. I [c]know there's never been a man in the awful [c7]shape i'm [f]in I can't even [c]spell my name, my [d7]heads in such a [g7]spin To-[c]day i tried to eat a steak with a big old [c7]table-[f]spoon You got me chasin' rabbits, [c]walkin' on my hands ...and [g7]howlin' at the [c]moon. Well, (*sug), i took one look at you and it almost drove me mad And then i even went and lost what little sense i had Now i can't tell the day from night, i'm crazy as a loon You got me chasin' rabbits, pullin' out my hair and howlin' at the moon. Some friends of mine asked me to go out on a huntin' spree 'cause there ain't a hound dog in this state that can hold a light to me I eat three bones for dinner today, then tried to tree a 'coon You got me chasin' rabbits, scratchin' fleas and howlin' at the moon. I rode my horse to town to day and a gas pump we did pass I pulled 'im up and i hollered whoa!, said fill 'im up with gas The man picked up a monkey wrench and wham!, he changed my tune You got me chasin' rabbits, spittin' out teeth and howlin' at the moon. I never thought in this old world a fool could fall so hard But honey baby, when i fell the whole world must have jarred I think i'd quit my doggish ways if you'd take me for your groom You got me chasin rabbits, pickin' out rings and howlin' at the moon
