Seven for Nothin
The title of this song is a bit of a musicians joke. I'm sure you've heard musicians 'count in' a song with "one, two, three, four". Sometimes we refer to that as 'four for nothing'.
This song starts with a 7 beat phrase, so I call it 'Seven for Nothin'.
If you're not into music theory and all this is meaningless to you, no worries. It really has really has nothing to do with enjoying the song.

Seven for Nothin'
Well you don't talk
About your troubles
I
won't tell you mine
Sittin' on the front porch
Seein' double
Waitin' for the sun to shine
So lay on back in the bluegrass music
Let's all get like the cow that chews it
Take a handful if you can use it
Play all day long
Sit up stand down
Hurry Hurry
Where you been so long
We all just been sittin' here chewin'
Singin' the sam ole song
Chorus
Don't make no sense
Well beg your pardon
Just lookin' for the way to rhyme
The reason it's pleasin'
I'm sittin in the garden
This must be the good ole time
Chorus
