Little Jimmy Dickens – They're Gonna Have Me Committed Lyrics

(Bobby Braddock)

They're gonna have me committed
To that big white house on the outskirts of the city
I'll go brur all day long until my mind is gone
They're gonna have me committed.

I dropped by the nut house today
I asked em to admit me right away
When I showed 'em a picture of you they believed it must be true
That I'm crazy to have let you get away.

They're gonna have me committed
My Jacket will be straight and custom fitted
I'll imagine crawling ants and big purple elephants
They're gonna have me committed.

--- Instrumental ---

With tears in my eyes I told them
How wonderful and sweet she'd always been
When I showed 'em a photograph of the hag they caught me with
The little white suited men came charging in.

They're gonna have me committed
To that big white house on the outskirts of the city
I'll go brur all day long until my mind is gone
They're gonna have me committed.

Please let me know if you should want me back
I'll be back in your arms in no time flat
I'll discard my paper doll tear the pattern of the wall
Cause I'm crazy over you and that's a fact.

They're gonna have me committed
To that big white house on the outskirts of the city
I'll go brur all day long until my mind is gone
They're gonna have me committed...
