Larry was his name, they said he's insane
His wife she was a bitch
Gave him lots of hell about the way he smell
Larry he worked in a ditch
Larry he just couldn't win
The whole world kept caving in
Just when he thought he gotten on top
He's back in the hole again
The Job he had made him mad
Gave him lots of trouble
And then one day he asked for more pay
They said Larry turn in your shovel
Larry he just couldn't win
The whole world kept caving in
Just when he thought he gotten on top
He's back in the hole again
He got a job as a check out clerk
And made just a little more money
The pay was good but it wasn't enough
To satisfy his honey
Larry he just couldn't win
The whole world kept caving in
Just when he thought he gotten on top
He's back in the hole again
Quit his job and decided to rob
The neighborhood seven eleven
He didn't have fun cause the clerk had a gun
Almost sent Larry to heaven
Larry he just couldn't win
The whole world kept caving in
Just when he thought he gotten on top
He's back in the hole again
Left that shop and was chased by a cop
Took poor Larry to jail
Larry's not rich and his wife still a bitch
Larry he couldn't make bail
Larry he just couldn't win
The whole world kept caving in
Just when he thought he gotten on top
He's back in the hole again
Did a lot of years and shed some tears
Breaking up them rocks
Larry had a plan when he was a free man
Put his wife in a box
Larry he just couldn't win
The whole world kept caving in
Just when he thought he gotten on top
He's back in the hole again
The day did come when the judge said run
Larry got a second chance
He got him a gun and he called up his hun
He said meet me at the dance
Larry he just couldn't win
The whole world kept caving in
Just when he thought he gotten on top
He's back in the hole again
He took her home so they could be alone
The loaded gun was up
He turned off the lights and then he said good night
The dirty job had begun
Larry he just couldn't win
The whole world kept caving in
Just when he thought he gotten on top
He's back in the hole again
Shot her ten times then he drank some wine
Thought he did himself a favor
Shot her in the head to be sure she was dead
Larry was seen by a neighbor
Larry he just couldn't win
The whole world kept caving in
Just when he thought he gotten on top
He's back in the hole again
It was only fair that he got the chair
Larry had to pay for his sins
The put him down 6 feet in the ground
Larry's in a hole again
Larry he just couldn't win
The whole world kept caving in
Just when he thought he gotten on top
He's back in the hole again
