              A                    E               D                  A 
Sunday morning, woke up yawning; filled the pool for a swim. 
                         E                            D            A 
Pulled down the head and looked in the glass just to see if I was in. 
                        E              D                    A 
Went up the stairs and kissed my women to make her come alive. 
 
                                E 
'Cause with fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids, 
          D                A  
I got to go for a Sunday drive. 
                    E 
Fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids , 
        D                  A 
I got to go for a Sunday drive. 
 
A                       E                  D                   A 
That's how they are, so I grabbed out the car; convertible fifty-nine. 
                          E                           D               A 
Headed for the freeway; tried to find the Pasadena sign. 
                      E                 D                       A 
Ten miles and three quarters more I wasn't feeling any more alive. 
 
                                 E 
'Cause with fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids, 
              D            A  
I got to go for a Sunday drive. 
                    E 
Fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids , 
        D                  A 
I got to go for a Sunday drive. 
 
A                         E                D                  A 
I used to be a minstrel free with a whole lot of bread in my bag. 
                        E                            D               A 
I used to feel that my life was real, but the good Lord threw me a snag. 
                     E               D                     A 
Now I'm gonna be the same as me ,no matter how I try. 
 
                                E 
'Cause with fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids, 
          D                A  
I got to go for a Sunday drive. 
                    E

A                      E               D                          A 
Turned 'round the car and headed for home; I guess I realized my fate. 
                      E                            D            A 
Ten miles and three quarters more I pulled up outside the gate. 
                  E                 D                     A 
Twenty more kids were stood inside and that made thirty-five. 
 
                                E 
'Cause with fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids, 
         D                 A  
I got to go for a Sunday drive. 
                    E 
Fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids , 
         D                 A 
I got to go for a Sunday drive.

Pulled down the head and looked in the glass just to see if I was in. 
                        E              D                  A 
Went up the stairs and kissed my women to make her come alive. 
 
A                             E 
'Cause with an orphanage full of thirty-five kids , 
       D                   A 
I got to go for a Sunday drive. 
                                E 
'Cause with fifteen kids and a fam'ly on the skids,
