Strum
D-DU-UDU
Bob  goes to church every Sunday,  Every Sunday  that the fish ain't biting
Bob  never has to have dinner  with the preacher,
 cause Bob  never bothered getting married
 He likes to drink  a beer or two every now and again,
 he always had  more dogs than he ever had friends
Bob  ain't light in the loafers,  he might kneel  but he never bends over
 Bob takes care of his mama, she's the only one he lets call him Robert
 She don't drive anymore so he takes her to the store
 and keeps her yard looking just like she wants it
 Every week at the beauty shop Bob's mama hears
 of another woman made another man disappear
 Robert ain't exactly scared of women, he's just got his own way of living
Bob's  still got an antenna on a pole
two  channels come in, two  more come and go
He  used to watch the news but he don't anymore,
ain't  none of it new it's the same  as before
He  figures all any of it's any good for is keeping everybody  bored
 till there ain't nobody like Bob  anymore
 Bob takes care of his mama
 she's a mess but he feels like he oughta
 How big a mess today? Ask Bob he'll say,
 “She's a big one and she's gonna be a lotta”
 He likes to drink a beer or two every now and again,
 he always had more dogs than he ever had friends
 Bob ain't light in the loafers, he might kneel but he never bends over
