Since it's my eighteenth birthday today I decided to write a song for the occasion. Happy Birthday to me. This is to the tune of "Down On Pennie's Farm".

It's a Funny Ol' World

Chorus: It's a funny ol' world that we're all livin' in I've said it before and I'll say it again Whenever I start to win it knocks me down again It's a funny ol' world that we're all livin' in It's a funny ol' world that we're all livin' in

I ain't seen much in eighteen years But what I've seen has brought me tears Whenever I see the morning paper I'm reminded once again It's a wicked ol' world that we're all livin' in It's a wicked ol' world that we're all livin' in

Chorus

I've learned many things from life's great game I've learned to point the finger and how to place the blame And if there's one thing I've learned from a politician It's a cruel ol' world that we're all livin' in It's a cruel ol' world that we're all livin' in

Chorus

We've got money for guns and money for war We've got money for anything 'cept for the poor It's a sinful world when we've got those who're starvin' It's a sinful ol' world that we're all livin' in It's a sinful ol' world that we're all livin' in

Chorus

But I've got hope and I've got a will And I've got all of you if you're with me still So I'll take all these knocks and take 'em on the chin And laugh at the funny ol' world we're all livin' in It's a funny ol' world that were all living in.
