Why, in fact, I even contemplates it
Robert, you think you could agree
Enco’, than anything else we know
My heart is overflowin’ and so
As direct descendants we figure independence
I’d druther be like I am
I’d druther be like I am
With that kind of a philosophy?
Yebo', than anything else we know
This thing called employment
We’d rather have our druthers than anything else we know
Whilst I’m doin’ nary
Some of my best friends are clams
I’d druther watch daisies grow
A thing that’s necessary
I sits there for hours developin’ my powers
I like you just the way you are
Of figurin’ how flowers gets tall
Than anything else we know
If I had my druthers, I’d druther have my druthers
Agree? I live it
Oh, you poor lamb
While watchin’ raindrops fall
If I had my druthers to choose from all the others
Huh, it ain’t that I hates it
And the summer breeze is blowin’
I’m happy as a cherry stone clam
Than anything else I know
Than anything else at all
Detracts from my enjoyment
If I had my druthers to choose from all the others
And tightens my diaphragm
While they’re growin’ slow
If I had my druthers, I’d druther have my druthers
Than work anywheres at all
Why sho’, huh
Our forefathers wrote it and often times we quote it
Ain’t only in Missouri and so if we had our druthers
Than anything else we know
Don’t nobody call
Monsieur John?
Whenever we’re feelin’ low
If I had my druthers, I’d druther have my druthers
While you’d druther hustle, accumulatin’ muscle
If we had our druthers, we’d rather have our druthers
