My woman left me and I'm sure glad she did

My old gal left me and I'm glad she took the kid

Now I got less mouths to feed and more to sleep in a bed
I got the good news blues, smilin' on a rainy day
Got the good news blues, done sung all my troubles away
Ain't got no achin' bones, ain't got no bills to pay
SOLO
A politician will say what you want to hear
Lord it's here one day and right out the other ear
He promise you whiskey and won't even give you a beer
Got the good news blues, smilin' on a rainy day yeah
I got the good news blues, done sung all my troubles away
Ain't got no achin' bones, ain't got no bills to pay
SOLO out
