Walkabout: Mud Season Theme Song

Here are the lyrics of the song Mrs. Curmudgeon composed while I was crammed in the wheel wells of my truck. Let’s all give her a hand.


It was mud season at Curmudgeon Compound
When God decided to throw the gauntlet down

We’d had a real tough winter, nearly 6 feet of snow
And also 2 months of 30 below

And just when I was thinking spring was finally on the way
I was dreaming of camping on a beautiful summer’s day

That’s when God decided that I had too much hope
And he was going to push me to the last inch of my rope

chorus:
Tough enough, tough enough
God just don’t think I’m tough enough

He’s test in’ and a tryin’ and Good Lord I am a dyin’
But God just don’t think I’m tough enough

My truck sank axle deep into the the fucking lawn
And then God sent some freezing rain to really stick it down

When I wasn’t on my knees digging in the mud
I was slipping in the dog's shit and falling with a thud.

My shovel broke, my shoulders ache I think I’ve gone insane
The truck pulled down the tree that is now wrapped around may chain

And just when I thinking reality is firmly in my grasp
Come thunder, lightening, snow, and wind to really kick my ass

chorus:
Tough enough, tough enough
God just don’t think I’m tough enough

He’s test in’ and a tryin’ and Good Lord I am a dyin’
But God just don’t think I’m tough enough

    Cue applause and whistling for Mrs. AC!

    I’m musically illiterate- I’m guessing the “tough enough” refrain would tell the less-ignorant reader what tempo, rythym, whatever, to use when belting it out as it might be similar to another pop song?

    Before you start selling the sheet music- I noticed a few typos; my ex usta force me to proofread. I ain’t free or even very good, but I am cheap…

    Thanks for sharing the lyrics, AC. May we expect music shortly?

      I too am musically illiterate. I have instruments but no talent. No audio track will ensue.

      Ya gotta’ love a wife that’ll make lyrics for your misfortunes eh? I’m a lucky man.
