Lyrics One Man's Mad - Memphis Slim

Poor old Ned, he laid down and died
Boys, and his wife went crazy too
His mother-in-law didn't say a word
Until the insurance man came through

But just going to show you
Man, the world is mad
What makes one person sad
Is bound to make another one glad

It was a great big crash and a terrible smash
And bodies layed all in the street
Undertaker smiled and he winked his eye
"Boy, business sure is sweet"

Just going to show you
Man, the world is mad
What makes one person happy
Is bound to make another one sad

Play it, Junior

John and his wife, you know they got in a fight
And the poor girl jumped up and left
But the girl got lonely and run to me
And I kept her for myself

Just going to show you
Man, the world is mad
What makes one person happy
Is bound to make another one sad
