Hole in my pants

There's a hole in my pants, just between us you and me
You can find it down my left leg, just exactly by the knee
But it ain't a big deal, 'cause I'm workin' in the yard
And the work is kinda dirty and it's also kinda hard

So I worked all day out in dust and mud and stuff
Doin' farm hand work that is manly and it's tough
And I don't care much 'bout that precious little rip
After all, who's gonna see it, I ain't tryin' to be hip

Well the sun shone down and was gettin kinda hot
But it's no concern, just my pants are goin' to pot
Gotta get things done, 'cause today must be the day
To get the yard work done, 'fore I go to work for pay

Well the day's now gone, and the work is mainly done
Time to get cleaned up, then to bed I'm gonna run
In the shower I get in, while outside it's gettin' dark
And I look down my leg and see a big red mark

And I don't know where it came from and I don't know what it is
I don't recollect me bumpin' or in hurtin' kinda biz
Then I see it's only one knee and I know that there's a chance
That I got a case of sunburn through the hole that's in my pants.
