Wasp's Nest - Ray Wylie Hubbard

There’s a wasp nest on my back porch

It might be a cause for alarm

There’s a wasp nest on my back porch

It might be a cause for alarm

There’s some holes in my screen door

And the little critters is all swarm

To fix the holes, it’s gonna take

Some hairpins and some wire

To fix the holes, it’s gonna take

Some hairpins and some wire

If a wasp is to sting you

It burns like a righteous hellfire

Them goddamn wasp is good for nothin'

They’re lowdown, miserable, mean

Them goddamn wasp is good for nothin'

They’re lowdown, miserable, mean

For the time being, I’ll just swat at 'em

Till the holes is patched up in my screen

Oh, Lord
