Doin' What Comes Natur'lly Lyrics

Folks are dumb where I come from
They ain't had any learnin'
Still they're happy as can be

Doin' what comes naturally
Doin' what comes naturally

Folks like us could never fuss
With schools and books and learnin'
Still we've gone from A to Z

Doin' what comes naturally
Doin' what comes naturally

You don't have to know how to read or write
When you're out with a feller in the pale moonlight
You don't have to look in a book to find
What he thinks of the moon and what is on his mind

That comes naturally
That comes naturally

My uncle out in Texas
Can't even write his name
He signs his checks with X's
But they cash 'em just the same

Uncle Ben got angry when
They caught him stealing chickens
I'm within my rights said he
Doing what comes naturally
Doing what comes naturally

A cousin Jack insured his shack
And now he plays with matches
He'll collect just wait and see
Doing what comes naturally
Doing what comes naturally

Sister Sal who's mus-i-cal
Ain't never had a lesson
Still she's learned to sing off-key
Doing what comes naturally
Doing what comes naturally

You don't have to go to a private school
Not to turn up your bustle to a stubborn mule
You don't have to have a professor's dome
Not to go for the honey when the bees at home
That comes naturally
That comes naturally

My uncle don't pay taxes
His address never gives
They can't collect his taxes
For they don't know where he lives

Grandpa Dick was always sick
But never saw a doctor
He just died at 93
Doing what comes naturally
Doing what comes naturally
Hey Rube
