There Ain't No Bugs on Me

Well the night was dark and drizzly
And the air was full of sleet
The old man joined the Ku Klux Clan
And ma, she lost her sheet

   Oh, there ain't no bugs on me
   There ain't no bugs on me
   There may be bugs on some of you mugs
   But there ain't no bugs on me

Well, the juney bug comes in the month of June
The lightning bug in May
Bed bugs come just any old time
But they're not going to stay

Billy Sunday was a preacher
His church is always full
The neighbors gather from miles around
Just to hear him shoot the bull

Well, the monkey swings by the end of his tail
And jumps from tree to tree
There may be monkeys in some of you guys
But there ain't no monkey in me

The night was dark and dreary
And the air was full of sleet
The old man stood out in the storm
And his shoes were full of feet

(Alternate chorus)
   Well there ain't no flies on me
   There ain't no flies on me
   There may be flies on some of you guys
   But there ain't no flies on me

(Tune is to: "It Ain't Gonna Rain")
