Misery`s The River Of The World
Misery`s The River Of The World

The Higher That The Monkey Can Climb
The More He Shows His Tail
Call No Man Happy `til He Dies
There`s No Milk At The Bottom Of The Pail

God Builds A Church
The Devil Builds A Chapel
Like The Thistles That Are Growing
`round The Trunk Of A Tree
All The Good In The World
You Can Put Inside A Thimble
And You Still Have Room For You And Me

If There`s One Thing You Can Say
About Mankind
There`s Nothing Kind About Man
You Can Drive Out Nature With A Pitch Fork
But It Always Comes Roaring Back Again

Misery`s The River Of The World
Misery`s The River Of The World
Misery`s The River Of The World

For Want Of A Bird
The Sky Was Lost
For Want Of A Nail
A Shoe Was Lost
For Want Of A Life
A Knife Was Lost
For Want Of A Toy
A Child Was Lost

Misery`s The River Of The World
Misery`s The River Of The World
Everybody Row! Everybody Row!
Misery`s The River Of The World
Misery`s The River Of The World
Everybody Row! Everybody Row!
Everybody Row!
