D A
Bob goes to church every Sunday,
G D
Every Sunday that the fish ain't biting
D A
Bob never has to have dinner with the preacher,
G D
cause Bob never bothered getting married
A
He likes to drink a beer or two every now and again,
G D
he always had more dogs than he ever had friends
D A G D
Bob ain't light in the loafers, he might kneel but he never bends over
D A
Bob takes care of his mama,
G D
she's the only one he lets call him Robert
D A
She don't drive anymore so he takes her to the store
G D
and keeps her yard looking just like she wants it
A
Every week at the beauty shop Bob's mama hears
G D
of another woman made another man disappear
D A G D
Robert ain't exactly scared of women, he's just got his own way of living
A
Bob's still got an antenna on a pole
G D
two channels come in, two more come and go
A
He used to watch the news but he don't anymore,
G D
ain't none of it new it's the same as before
A G
He figures all any of it's any good for is keeping everybody bored
D
till there ain't nobody like Bob anymore
D A
Bob takes care of his mama
G D
she's a mess but he feels like he oughta
D A
How big a mess today? Ask Bob he'll say,
G D
“She's a big one and she's gonna be a lotta”
A
He likes to drink a beer or two every now and again,
G D
he always had more dogs than he ever had friends
D A G D
Bob ain't light in the loafers, he might kneel but he never bends over
