I was born on a farm out in Iowa<br /> A flaming youth I was bound I would fly away<br /> I packed my grip and I grabbed my saxophone<br /> Can&#39;t read notes, but I play anything by ear<br /> I made up tunes on the sounds that I used to hear<br /> When I&#39;d start to play folks to say<br /> Sounds a little goofus to me<br /> Corn fed chords appeal to me<br /> I like rustic harmony<br /> Hold a note and change the key<br /> Hey but that&#39;s goofus<br /> Not according to the rules<br /> That you learned in music schools<br /> But the folks just dance like fools<br /> They sure go for goofus<br /> <br /> Got a job but I just couldn&#39;t keep it long<br /> The leader said that I played all the music wrong<br /> So I stepped out with an outfit of my own<br /> Got together a new kind of orchestra<br /> And we all played just the same goofus harmony<br /> And I must admit we made a hit<br /> Goofus has been lucky for me<br /> Got together a new kind of orchestra<br /> And we all played just the same goofus harmony<br /> And I must admit we made a hit<br /> Goofus has been lucky for me<br /> Goofus has been lucky for me<br /> Goofus has been lucky for meLyrics provided by TANCODEhttps://damnlyrics.com/" readonly=""/>
