It's A Great Day To Be A Guy
Cledus T. Judd Lyrics

You know I'm really gonna miss you, sugar britches
The singer will miss their partner

I'm gonna miss you too, Bub
The partner will also miss the singer

Now I'm only gonna be gone a few days
The singer will only be gone for a short amount of time

But now there is a few things I need you to do while I'm gone
The artist has tasks for their partner to complete during their absence

Oh, I figured there's somethin'!
The partner expected this request

Oh, quit complainin'
The singer wants their partner to stop complaining about the tasks

All you gotta do is cut the grass, wash the car, trim the hedges
The singer provides a list of tasks for their partner

Paint the fence, clean the pool, give the dog a bath
The list of tasks continues

Defrost the fridge, clean out the garage
The list concludes

Right
The partner acknowledges the list of tasks

Sweep the chimney, and I'll see you on Monday
An additional task is added to the list

I love you boogie, boogie
The artist expresses their love and affection for their partner

I love you too an' you, you don't you worry 'bout me, I'll be just fine
The partner assures the singer that they will be okay

I've got my socks dryin' in the microwave
The singer is drying their socks in an unconventional way

Hair on my back I don't plan to shave
The singer is not concerned with grooming their body hair

I've got the house to myself while the wife's away
The artist is home alone while their partner is away

I'll be rockin' all night
The artist plans to stay up late and have fun

Yeah, I think I'll drink me an ice cold brew
The singer plans to drink cold beer

Lounge in my boxers like I used to do
The singer plans to relax in their underwear

There'll be no Ally McBeal on the tube, no
The artist has no plans to watch the television show Ally McBeal

I'll be watchin' the fight
The artist plans to watch a fight on television

Played cards with my buddies until sunrise
The artist played cards with their friends all night

You know, I never thought that my neighbor would
The singer is surprised by their neighbor's actions

Be sunbathing topless, Lord, she sure looks good
The artist finds their neighbor attractive

I caught a 10 pound bass out on the lake
The singer caught a large fish while fishing

Played 18 holes with my best friend, Jake
The singer played a full game of golf with their friend

Best balls I hit was when I stepped on a rake
The singer hit the best shots accidentally

Oh, well it wasn't too bright
The artist acknowledges their mistake

Now I look in the fridge, what do I see?
The artist is looking in the fridge for food

Last night's pizza starin' back at me
The singer sees leftover pizza in the fridge

Pepperoni and anchovies
The pizza toppings are pepperoni and anchovies

What a beautiful sight
The artist is happy to have food to eat

Buck naked in my lawn chair swattin' at flies
The artist is outside naked, trying to kill flies

Got some hot dogs on the charcoal grill
The artist is cooking hot dogs on a grill

I don't wanna burn my wieners but I probably will
The singer is worried about burning the hot dogs

That fried baloney and cheese macaroni
The artist ate fried baloney and macaroni with cheese earlier in the day

Tasted good this afternoon
The singer enjoyed the food they ate earlier

But now I'm passin' some serious gas and
The singer is experiencing gas from the food they ate

I might have to leave the room
The singer may need to go to a different room to avoid embarrassment

Well, I might go get me a new hairdo
The artist is considering getting a new hairstyle

Spend a couple hours in a tanning booth
The artist is planning to get a tan

Might even get me a gold front tooth
The singer is considering getting a gold tooth

But when my wife gets home, she's gonna tan my hide
The singer's wife will be upset with the singer's behavior

I'll be hung over but a lookin' good
The artist may feel unwell from drinking, but still thinks they will look good

From a week of reliving my bachelorhood
The artist is acting as if they are a single man again

But another week of this and I'd probably die
The artist couldn't continue this lifestyle for an extended period of time

I tend to party harder than I should
The singer admits to making poor decisions when partying

When my wife's not here to make me be good
The artist's wife usually keeps them in check

Yeah hoo!
The singer is excited about the activities they have planned
