Doin' What Comes Natur'lly Lyrics

[1]
Folks are dumb where I come from
They ain't had any learnin'
Still they're happy as can be
Doin' what comes natur'lly
Doin' what comes natur'lly

Folks like us could never fuss
With schools and books and learnin'
Still we've gone from A to Z
Doin' what comes natur'lly
Doin' what comes natur'lly

You don't have to know how to read or write
When you're out with a feller in the pale moonlight
You don't have to come from a great big town
Not to go pickin' berries in an evening gown
That comes natur'lly
That comes natur'lly

My uncle out in Texas can't even write his name
He signs his checks with X's but they cash them just the same

Grandpa Dick was always sick
But never saw a doctor
He just died at ninety-three 
Doin' what comes natur'lly
Doin' what comes natur'lly
 
[2]
Cousin jack insured his shack
And now he plays with matches
He'll collect just wait and see
Doin' what comes natur'lly
Doin' what comes natur'lly
 
Sister Sal who's mus-i-cal
Has never had a lesson
Still she's learned to sing off-key
Doin' what comes natur'lly
Doin' what comes natur'lly
 
You don't have to go to a private school 
Not to pick up a penny by a stubborn mule
You don't have to have a professor's dome
Not to go for the honey when the bee's at home
That comes natur'lly
That comes natur'lly
 
My uncle don't pay taxes, his address never gives
They can't collect his taxes for they don't know where he lives

Uncle Ben got angry when
They caught him stealing chickens
I'm within my rights, said he
Doin' what comes natur'lly
Doin' what comes natur'lly
