Mama told me Daddy 

ran away with the circus
G

the greatest show on earth

Preacher told me heck's 

full of them that deserve it

Good news and bad, son, 

which one ya want first

Sometimes you're the hammer

Sometimes you're the nail
C               G
Like my Daddy before me
        D
This is where the apple fell
C                   G
Beatin the odds and comin up roses
Em                C
Ain't my story to tell
                           D
The whole world swings the hammer
            G
And I'm the nail

Trouble seems to find me like 

it ain't even trying
G
Eye in the sky got 
my name in a file
