Build it up, knock it down
D#
Hold it square, roll it around
Throw it in the air, stick it in the ground
G#               A#
But it's too bad,
I can't get mad
D#
Cause I'm a roustabout

D#
Tie it loose, make it tight
D#
If it's wrong, do it right
Makes me kinda feel like I wanna fight

Chorus:
G#               A#
But it's too bad,
I can't get mad

Cause I'm a roustabout

Orders all day and half the night,
from the boss
F                            A#
That guys cousin don't wanna see
one minute lost

Stack it up, in the rig
Better still, bring it here
Wanna take it out stick it in his ear

A handyman is all I am around this place
Every time I turn around he's
right up in my face

Bring it in, drag it out
When I'm slow, boy he shouts
Gettin aweful tired runnin' in and out
