Daylight Saving Time

DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME (Grandpa Jones) For years and years folks got along with an old grandfather's clock Or just a common old sun dial sittin' out on a block Then the dollar watch it had its day and wrist watch it was fine Then along came a man who ruined us all with Daylight Savin' Time. I a huntin' that man who first thought up Daylight Savin' Time Until he moved the clocks around everything was a goin' fine But I guess he's hid and won't come out, he knows he was out of line I get up late, have to wait, can't keep it straight Who did he hate, I man that first thought up Daylight Savin' Time. His followers always argue that they've gained an hour of light By moving all the clocks around but I can't see they're right The sun still rises just the same and sets just as before If they'd rise 60 minutes early, maybe they'd have an hour more So why not leave the clocks alone so folks won't be confused Let 'em hit the floor an hour before if it's daylight that they choose I'm huntin' that man who first thought up Daylight Savin' Time If he will prove why the clocks are moved then I'll admit it's fine I've twisted my old clock around 'til it ain't worth a dime I'm countin' sheep, losing sleep, get up late, miss my date Couldn't get there in a Cadillac 8, try as they will they'll never gain with Daylight Savin' Time
