[Verse 1]
EbBuild it up, knock it down
EbHold it square, roll it around
NC
Throw it in the air, stick it in the ground
AbBut it's too bad, IBb can't get mad
EbCause I'm a roustabout
[Verse 2]
EbTie it loose, make it tight
EbIf it's wrong, do it right
NC
Makes me kinda feel like I wanna fight
[Chorus]
AbBut it's too bad, BbI can't get mad
EbCause I'm a roustabout
[Refrain 1]
AbOrders all day and half the night, fEbrom the boss
FThat guys cousin don't wanna see one minute lost
[Verse 3]
EbStack it up, in the rig
EbBetter still, bring it here
NC
Wanna take it out stick it in his ear
[Chorus]
AbBut it's too bad, BbI can't get mad
EbCause I'm a roustabout
[Refrain 2]
AbA handyman is all EbI am around this place
FEvery time I turn around he's right up in my face
[Verse 4]
EbBring it in, drag it out
EbWhen I'm slow, boy he shouts
NC
Gettin aweful tired runnin' in and out
[Chorus]
AbBut it's too bad, BbI can't get mad
EbCause I'm a roustabout
