keberoxu Spring ahead (10) Lyr Req: Daylight Savin' Time (Grandpa Jones) 11 Mar 17


There are more than two verses to this one, but this is all I could find online. Please chime in with the rest of the verses.

For years and years folks got along
With an old grandfather's clock
Or just a common old sundial
Sittin' out on a block
The dollar watch, it had its day,
An' the wrist watch, it was fine
Then along came a man who ruined us all
with DAYLIGHT SAVIN' TIME

I'm a-huntin' that man who first thought up
this DAYLIGHT SAVIN' TIME
Until he moved the clocks around
Ev'rything was a-goin' fine
But I guess he's hid and he won't come out
He knows he's out o' line
But I get up late
I have to wait
Can't get it straight
Who did he hate
I mean the man who first thought up
that DAYLIGHT SAVIN' TIME
