G#mCrazy Murray owns a farm beGside my summer home
And BMurray is always lonely, though he C#never is alone
He hFas a horse named King, and an old dAog named King as well
And sEeven pigs he hangs each spring but nBever seems to sell
And G#mCrazy Murray had his mother liGving there with him
She iBnvited us to tea and cookies, C#me and my friend Jim
The Ftea had brewed for 14 hours, the cAookies they were moist
Her SEwedish nurse came with her pills and Bhad to raise her voice
[Chorus]
And G#mCrazy Murray Gis a lonelBy man
He'll G#mmarry a lovely Glady if Bhe can
But C#mMurray, he is kAind of odd
And C#mpeople will stay Eaway
But C#mMurray will be hAappier some G#mday...
