This was the MAIN verse....each show had a verse converning the guest that night or one of the cast
Gloom, despair, and agony on me! (WOE!)
Deep, dark depression, excessive misery! (WOE!)
If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. WOE!)
Gloom, despair, and agony on me!

Ran across an old HEE HAW VIDEO with the following verse...
I suppose there were over 600 verses, built around the weekly guests and members.

ARCHIE CAMPBELL:
Grandpa's Brother-In-Law know he's a soft touch

ROY CLARK:
He's borrowed everything Grandpa's got, from shoes to brush

KENNY PRICE:
Why, one day he got up and Grandpa's upper-plate was gone

GRANDPA JONES: When he grinned at me with my teeth, that was too much!.

Dis pair or dat pair? Which pair d'ya mean? You want to talk about despair, talk to a drunken Irishman who's been turfed out of the pub and doesn't have two cents left to rub together.
