[Chorus]
G C G
Beer belly blues, what color are my new shoes.
G D
Cause my feet and belt buckle are things I rarely see.
G C
My problem is not my glands, it comes poured from aluminum cans,
G D G
And Papst Blue Ribbon has been awfully good to me.
[Verse 1]
C G
And honey when you buy my shirts, make sure there triple XL
G D
Four or five people I know at work have started callin' me Orsen Wells.
G C
I got endorsment offers from Michelob, Lite, and Strohs,
G D G
And Junior Sample's family called and their savin' me his old clothes.
[Chorus]
G C G
Beer belly blues, what color are my new shoes.
G D
Cause' my pants and my zipper are things I rarely see

G D G
And Old Milwaukie's been awfully good to me.
[Verse 2]
C G
Yeah I used to be a lean 175 now I'm way over three
G D
It's a gettin' to the point that my own wife dont wanna' slow dance with me
G C
Cause' I like to eat and watch tv, and knock out a case or two
G D G
Even people like Sally Struthers say that I need to lose a few.
[Chorus 3]
G C G
Beer belly blues, are something that I can't lose
G D
If Richard Simmons saw me he'd cry and hold my hand
G C
