I keep hearing you're concerned about my happiness.

All that thought you're giving me is conscience, I guess.

If I were walking in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none.

While you and your friends are worrying 'bout me, I'm having lots of fun.



Counting flowers on the wall,

That don't bother me at all.

Playing Solitaire till dawn,

With a deck of fifty-one.

Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.

Now, don't tell me I've nothing to do.



Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town.

As long as I can dream, it's hard to slow this swinger down.

So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doing fine.

You can always find me here, having quite a time.

Well, it's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright.

Anyway my eyes are not accustomed to this light.

And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete.

So I must go back to my room and make my day complete.

OH! Did someone re-record this one? I LOVE this song!!!



I believe The Statler Brothers probably made this a big hit...I personally love their version of it. The song is called "Counting Flowers On The Wall".



And I believe this was a hit for the Kingston Trio, but I could be wrong about that.

too good. some very accurate. how many TV show have been based on the premise of no 7? no 13 is what I tell the kids, at least daily. its kinda like when they rush in with coins from the laundry, "ohh look what I found",,,, I have to remind them that is wasn't lost for them to find... no 1. ==> coyote ugly. you wake up n find a dud asleep on yr arm and sadly realise that its better to chew the arm off than to risk waking him.... stars!! PS. does anyone know the URL 4 FUNNY DUCK or DUCKISBAK, he keeps deleting too.
