Lyrics:

Here's a story about a man named Fred.
He heard a bell when he went to bed.
He woke up at a quarter past three to find himself at
The bottom of the sea.
But don't laugh till you hear the truth 'cause a man found
His heart nearly broken in two.
All the fish come from miles around.
He is the party in their one horse town.
Nobody knows all the troubles I've seen.
Just outside
Darling I know
It's the trail of the tears.
And I fear the call of the road.

Here's a bit about a brother Bill,
Who had a house at the top of the hill.
Wife had to better cry her a river.
She fell in love with an Indian giver.

Nobody knows all the troubles I've seen.
Just outside
Darling I know
It's the trail of the tears.
I hear the call of the road.

Here's a ditty about a guy named Dave E,
Who had a life like to drive him crazy.
Don't you see that's a bitter pill to never know what
Lies over the hill?
Don't laugh till you hear the truth about a man found
His heart nearly broken in two.
You don't believe how it came to be?
He bought a ranch at the bottom of the sea.
Nobody knows all the troubles I've seen.
Nobody knows all the troubles I've seen.
