Doin' what comes natur'lly
Lyrics
Folks are dumb where I come from
They ain't had any learnin'
Still, they're happy as can be
Doin' what comes naturally
(Doin' what comes naturally)
Folks like us could never fuss
With schools and books and learnin'
Still we've gone from A to Z
Doin' what comes naturally
(Doin' what comes naturally)
You don't have to know how to read or write
When you're out with a feller in the pale moonlight
You don't have to look in a book to find
What he thinks of the moon and what is on his mind
That comes naturally
(That comes naturally)
My uncle out in Texas
Can't even write his name
He signs his checks with X's
And they cash 'em just the same
Grandpa Dick was always sick
But never saw a doctor
He just died at ninety-three
Doin' what comes naturally
(Doin' what comes naturally)
Cousin Jack insured his shack
And now he plays with matches
He'll collect, just wait and see
Doin' what comes naturally
(Doin' what comes naturally)
Uncle Paul heard someone call
When he just had two deuces
He wound up with aces three
Doin' what comes naturally
(Doin' what comes naturally)
You don't have to go to a private school
Not to turn up your bustle to a stubborn mule
You don't have to have a professor's dome
Not to go for the honey when the bee's at home
That comes naturally
(That comes naturally)
A nice young man named Harry
Is stuck on Sister Flo
She'd like to marry Harry
But his wife won't let him go
If you saw my pa and ma
You'd know they had no learnin'
Still they raised a family
Doin' what comes naturally
(Doin' what comes naturally)
Doin' what comes naturally
(Doin' what comes naturally)
