Butter Knife Blues

She gave me a glass of water, made me drink it down
Then she gave me four more, she's trying to make me drown

Well, that's all right
It's not all right
Yeah, that's OK
It's not OK
I was kind of thirsty
One more sip
Anyway

She took me to a staircase, she tried to shove me down
But that silly woman did it two steps from the ground

Well, that's all right
It's not all right
Yeah, that's OK
It's not OK
I was going down
Way too slow
Anyway

One day during breakfast, she tried to end my life
She barely made a mark on me because she used a butter knife

Well, that's all right
It's not all right
Yeah, that's OK
It's not OK
I buttered my toast
That was mine
Anyway

She had me meet her family, I wasn't very rude
But when it came to supper time, there was something in my food

Well, that's all right
It's not all right
Yeah, that's OK
It's not OK
I wasn't hungry
Just one bite
Anyway

One night she tried to freeze me, put me out in the cold
Turned out it was August, she couldn't be consoled
Well, that's all right
It's not all right
Yeah, that's OK
It's not OK
I like the fresh air
Wait till winter
Anyway

We've been together years now, she's tried a hundred ways
But I've survived every time though every night she prays

Well, that's all right
It's not all right
Yeah, that's OK
It's not OK
I'll keep on living
Yeah, you will
Anyway
Yeah, that's all right
It's not all right
Yeah, that's OK
It's not OK
She'll keep on trying
You know I will
Till my dying day
