This is a request that had me stumped for a long time, being unable to find the lyrics and not being able to decipher them from the only video of the song on YouTube until recently. However thanks to my friend Raymond Crooke I now have both lyrics and chords for this amusing song. The Murphy bed of the title is a clever space saving device. When down and open, it is as the name suggests a bed, but when not in use it is lifted up from the foot end and folded into an alcove in the wall thus creating space in the room. The thought crosses your mind though; 'what happens if someone is in the bed when it is folded away?'
Sammy Gallop and Al Goodhart wrote this song with that thought in mind.

I have just produced a book of songs under the title "50 Songs from the 'threelegsoman' collection". It is available as a printed book or as an eBook and can be found at:
