Jim Reeves - Beatin' On The Ding Dong lyrics

Beatin' on the ding dong all day long

I go around just singing this song

I got a gal, maybe two or three

Beatin' on the ding dong don't bother me.

Most folks worry when they have no dough

Which can't feel good 'cause of feeling low

I don't worry if I'm broke no more

I ain't rich so I must be poor.


Beatin' on the ding dong don't mean a thing

Just some words that you can sing

Makes no difference if they're right or wrong

Beating on the ding dong all day long.


--- Instrumental ---


Some are happy when they have big cars

To ride around and they puff cigars

Give me a rattle trap model T

I'm as happy as a kid could be.


A house and a flea and a bunch of mice

Out in the barnyard shootin' dice

The house grows cold and steps on a flea

The flea yells fellas there's a house on me.


Beating on the ding dong all day long

I go around just singing this song

I got a gal, maybe two or three

Beatin' on the ding dong don't bother me.


--- Instrumental ---


I stood with my gal on the porch last night

A huggin' and a kissin' till it got daylight

Her pa said get him and I had to stand

A bull dog had me by the seat of the pants.


I don't have nothin' to bother me

As happy as a possum in a lemon tree

If I had a wife that 'd work at all

I wouldn't have work this coming fall.


Beating on the ding dong all day long

I go around just singing this song

I got a gal, maybe two or three

Beatin' on the ding dong don't bother me.


Beatin' on the ding dong don't bother me...
