Recorded by Hank Williams, Sr.
Words and music by Hank Williams, Sr.

I [G] went to the country - just [C] the other day
To see [D7] my Uncle Bill and sorta [G] pass the time away
I asked him how he`d been - since [C] last, I`d passed his way
He rubbed his [D7] chin - here`s what he had [G] to say.

"My wife`s been sick - the [C] young`ns, too
And I`m [D7] durn near - down [G] with the flu
The cow`s gone dry - and them [C] hens won`t lay
But - [D7] we`re still a-livin` - so EVER`-[G] THING`S Okay.

The hogs took the cholera and they`ve all done died
The bees got mad - and they left the hive
The weevils got the corn and the rain rotted the hay
But - we`re still a-livin` - so EVER`THING`S Okay.

The porch rotted down - that`s more expense
The durned old mule - he tore down the fence
The mortgage is due and - I can`t pay
But - we`re still a-livin` - so EVER`THING`S Okay.

The cow broke in the field and eat up the beans
The durn rabbits - they got the turnip greens
And my Ma-in-law just moved in to stay
But - we`re still a-livin` - so EVER`THING`S Okay.

My land`s so poor - so hard and "yeller"
You have to set on a sack of fetilizer to raise an "umbreller"
And it rains out here - nearly ever` day
But - we`re still a-livin` - so EVER`THING`S Okay.

The well`s gone dry and I have to tote the water
Up from the spring - about a mile and a quarter
My helper, he quit - for the lack of pay
But - we`re still a-livin` - so EVER`THING`S Okay.

The house it leaks - it needs a new top
When it rains - it wets ever`thing we got
The chimney fell down - just yesterday
But - we`re still a-livin` - so EVER`THING`S Okay.

The corn meals gone and the meat`s run out
Got nothin` to kill to put in the smokehouse
The preacher`s comin` Sunday - to spend the day
But - we`re still a-livin` - so EVER`THING`S Okay.

The canned stuff`s spoiled - else the jar`s got broke
And all we got left is one old Billy goat
We`re gonna have a new baby about the first of May
But - we`re still a-livin` - so EVER`THING`S Okay.

My crop it rotted - in the ground
I asked for another loan but the banker turned me down
But - we`re still a-livin` and we`re prayin` for better days
So - after all, ever`thing`s in purty good shape."
