Bullfrog, You Don't Know

Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for whatcha gonna give her."
Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for whatcha gonna give her."

Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for the ring you're gonna give her,
You oughta give more than one day's pay
To sweep that pretty girl away," I said,
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.

Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for the house you're gonna give her,
This swamp will never be her home, when you go huntin'
And leave her alone," I said,
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.

Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for the life you're gonna give her,
With fourteen kids and hurricanes
And huntin' dogs and raisin' cane," I said,
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.

Now some would say that what I hear
Is just my conscience comin' clear,
I don't deserve her, that's for sure
But in reply to what I heard, I said,
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
 
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.

Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for whatcha gonna give her."
Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for whatcha gonna give her."
 
Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for whatcha gonna give her."
Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for whatcha gonna give her."
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.

Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for the dress you're gonna give her,
For the clothes you're puttin' on her back
She might as well wear a burlap sack," I said,
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.

Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for the grub you're gonna give her,
She'll have to skin and scale all day
To make a meal come out okay," I said,
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.

Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for the truck you're gonna give her,
It's seen its day, it's had its run,
Keeping that thing running won't be no fun," but,
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.

Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for whatcha gonna give her."
Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for whatcha gonna give her."
 
Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for whatcha gonna give her."
Bullfrog singin' on the bank of the river,
"I don't care much for whatcha gonna give her."
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
 
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
Bullfrog, you don't know,
Bullfrog, you don't know.
