Karaoke Track: She Got The Goldmine (I Got The Shaft) by Jerry Reed (Compass Productions) - Karaoke Nerds

WELL I GUESS IT

WAS BACK IN '63
WHEN EATIN' MY COOKIN'

GOT THE BETTER OF ME

BUT l'D-A SAID
I WOULDN'T

IF I'D-A JUST KNEW

HOW SAYIN' I DO
WAS GONNA SCREW UP
ALL OF MY LIFE

WELL IT WASN'T

TOO LONG

TILL THE LUST ALL DIED
AND I'LL ADMIT

I WASN'T TOO SURPRISED

WELL I TRIED TO GET IN

SHE CHANGED THE LOCK
THEN I FOUND THIS NOTE

TAPED ON THE MAILBOX
THAT SAID

GOODBYE TURKEY

MY ATTORNEY
WILL BE IN TOUCH

SOI DECIDED
RIGHT THEN AND THERE

I WAS GONNA DO
WHAT'S RIGHT

GIVE HER
HER FAIR SHARE

SHE GOT THE GOLD MINE
I GOT THE SHAFT

THEY SPLIT IT
RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE

AND THEN THEY GIVE HER
THE BETTER HALF

WELL ITALL SOUNDS
SORT OF FUNNY

BUT IT HURTS TOO MUCH
TO LAUGH

SHE GOT THE GOLD MINE
I GOT THE SHAFT

NOW LISTEN
YOU AIN'T HEARD

NOTHIN' YET
WHY THEY GIVE HER

THE COLOR
TELEVISION SET

g

I'M TELLIN' YA
THEY HAVE

MADE A MISTAKE
'CAUSE ITADDS UP

TO MORE THAN
THIS COWBOY MAKES

WHILE SHE'S LIVIN'

LIKE A QUEEN
ON ALIMONY

I'M WORKIN' TWO SHIFTS
EATIN' BALONEY

ASKIN' MYSELF

WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST
LEARN HOW TO COOK

THEY GIVE HER

THE GOLD MINE
THEY GIVE ME THE SHAFT

THEY SAID
THEY'RE SPLITTIN' IT

ALL DOWN THE MIDDLE

BUT SHE GOT
THE BETTER HALF

WELL ITALL SOUNDS
MIGHTY FUNNY

BUT IT HURTS TOO MUCH
TO LAUGH

SHE GOT THE GOLD MINE
I GOT THE SHAFT
