My Bucket’s Got a Hole In It (Live) Lyrics

Yea! my bucket's got a hole in it
Yea! my bucket's got a hole in it
Yea! my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer

Well I'm standin' on a corner
With a bucket in my hand
I'm waitin' for a woman
That ain't got no man

'Cause my bucket's got a hole in it
Yea! my bucket's got a hole in it
Yea! my bucket's got a hole in it
I can't buy no beer

Well, I went up on the mountain
I looked down in the sea
I seen the crabs and the fishes
Doin' the be - bop - bee

Well, there ain't no use
Of me workin' so hard
When I got a woman
In the boss man's yard

Well, me and my baby
We just bought a Ford
And now we sit together
On the running board...
