Yea! my buckets got a hole in it
Yea! my buckets got a hole in it
Yea! my buckets got a hole in it
I cant buy no beer.
Well Im standin on a corner - with a bucket in my hand
Im waitin for a woman - that aint got no man.
Cause my buckets got a hole in it
Yea! my buckets got a hole in it
Yea! my buckets got a hole in it
I cant buy no beer.
Well, I went upon the mountain - I looked down in the sea
I seen the crabs and the fishes - doin the be-bop-bee.
Well, there aint no use - of me workin so hard
When I got a woman - in the boss mansyard.
Well, me and my baby - we just bought a ford
And now we sit together - on the running board.
