[G] She had 13 kids each one had 13 problems
Three uppers ten downers just to put up with [D] this
[G] And she don't know which children
belong to which father
But she loves them all anyway, and they each [D] get a kiss
[G] And the toilet ain't flushing
And the toaster is smoking
The vacuum don't suck, but it needs a new [D] belt

of a child and
Remembers how good it [D] was and how good
[G] it felt

He works [D] as a clerk
[G] And he can't pay the doctor bills
He just can't afford the pills the cars

Big problems seem smaller [D] and old things
[G] Seem new
