About This Song


My old personal trainer commented one Monday morning about my eating of pizza and other not so good foods over the weekend and said you're going to end up with the big belly blues. I immediately said that a song right there...and he challenged me to write it...and so here's a rough demo of the "The Big Belly Blues".

Big Belly Blues

Written by Tony True


Verse 1
Well I wake up each mornin and I roll outta my bed
When I wake up each mornin’ have to roll on outta my bed
Cause my belly’s so big ‘fraid of fallin’ on my head

Verse 2
Then I stroll to the kitchen to make myself some eats
I stroll into that kitchen and I make myself some eats
Pile on the pork and beans, I gotta have me my sugar beets

Chorus
There ain’t no doubt, I got the big belly blues
Oh no there ain’t no doubt, I got the big belly blues
So much weight to lose, cause I just can’t see my shoes

Solo

Verse 3
My woman she loves me even though I’m kinda big
Ya my lady she loves me even though she knows I’m big
I call her “sweet honey pie”, she calls me “Poppa pig” oink oink

Chorus
There ain’t no doubt; I got the big belly blues
Oh no there ain’t no doubt, I got the big belly blues
So much weight to lose, cause I just can’t see my shoes

Solo

Verse 4
You know I tried to diet and I tried that workin’ out
You know I tried to diet but it just didn’t work out (neither did I)
Guess I’ll always be short and rolly polly stout


Chorus 2X
Cause they’re ain’t no doubt, I got the big belly blues
Oh there ain’t no doubt, I got the big belly blues
I got so much weight to lose, cause I just can’t see my shoes

I can't find em, can you see em, I don't know where they are...
