And (G)takes him out and buys him new clothes
That's the (D)way that the world goes (G)'round
(Chorus)
(G)That's the way that the world goes 'round

Well I was (G)sittin' in the tub just a countin' my toes
When the (C)radiator broke and the water froze
Got (G)stuck in the ice without any clothes
Naked as the eyes of a (D)clown
I was (G)cryin', "Ice cubes", hopin' that I'd croak
When the (C)sun came through the window and the ice all broke
