Lou’s Got The Flu Lyrics - Roger Miller

Some people bad and some people good, 

Too bad the bad can't be like the good, 

But everything changes a little and it should, 

Good ain't forever and bad ain't for good 

And Lou's got the flu and he's laid up, laid up, laid up, 

Lou's got the flu and he's laid up, 

Have to get well pretty soon though 

l got sugar in my candy and sugar in my soup 

l'm getting fat from the candy and sick from the soup 

True love is sweet but if it's mishandled 

A bitter wind blows and out goes your candle 

And Lou's got the flu and he's laid up, laid up, laid up, 

Lou's got the flu and he's laid up, 

Have to get well pretty soon though 

Now not enough water puts thirst in a man 

And just enough water puts joy in his land 

But too much water will overflow 

And tear the man's land up, so there you go 

And Lou's got the flu and he's laid up, laid up, laid up, 

Lou's got the flu and he's laid up, 

Have to get well pretty soon though
