I can't believe he got the muppets to say hell! LOL!

[@billie-mariekasson6719]

"OH LORD IT'S HARD TO BE HUMBLE" was GIFT OF LEVITY from MAC DAVIS. His facetious song sparkled with a contagious uplifting humor and verve & to the amusement, amazement & embarrassment of our 7 children, my husband adopted the chorus as his theme song, NOT THAT HE THOUGHT HE WAS PERFERCT IN EVERY WAY; BUT BECAUSE HE KNEW HE WASN'T & that was the fun of it! AT THE AGE OF 98 he still enjoys the HILARITY the song evokes, which has helped Bill to age gracefully with humor. Billie-Marie Kasson

This song was huge in South Africa. Good memories.

[@cityraildude]

Good on ya mate! The best damn country in the world. Hell! We are so great we don't get offended at four-letter words which are just damn words and nothing but damn words!

@haggios63 I remember this exact episode when it was new in 1980. I was only 12 at the time and a little shocked myself that they allowed the "one hell of a man" lyric to be sung on that show. But the Muppets weren't really geared entirely for kids, it was more of a variety show and it was shown on prime time TV where lots of TV shows allowed "hell" and "damn" to be said. The Muppets show wasn't at all like Sesame Street even though some of the characters came from there.

[@djtrince3261]

They also used the "Original" "Devil Went Down to Georgia", too, in another episode! (Uncensored lyric too)

[@ranadavid2002]

Put a smile on my face :)

[@ItsLunaRegina]

It really is hard being humble when you are the epitome of perfection. I would know.

[@FamousFatdog]

Yep, I know th' feeling well.

[@MyJaxJingles]

this is my favorite memory

[@theengagedfew]

Did the Muppets just say "Hell"? That's great!!!!

[@annied1827]

Why are you so shocked, wow if you find this shocking go look up Kenny Rogers, the gambler, muppets 🤣🤣

[@timmis1971]

[@luquik]

[@sajateacher]

This song really speaks to me.

[@shakeypitt]

I notice that they left out the verse about him filling out his skin-tight blue jeans....

[@richardnamber813]

Crazy how this was made before I was born

[@davidkonen4563]

[@crow672008]

Link is awesome

[@mlrichardson84]

3 people are imperfect in every way.

[@relsqui]

Most people here don't either. Don't mistake the policies of the mass media for the opinions of the people. :)

@wouterbosscha01 Whahaha! I think the other way around bro.. Mac davis had a hit in 1980. Peter Blanker met Het is moeilijk bescheiden te blijven in 1981.. Quote: In 1981 scoorde hij een onverwachte nationale top 10-hit met 't Is moeilijk bescheiden te blijven, een vertaling van It's hard to be humble van de Amerikaanse countryzanger Mac Davis

[@maartn21]

Mostly every else in the world but america i think :P

[@maryphillips8996]

It's hard to sing with muppets

[@xxdeanxgtrxplyrxx]

Really, political posts on a fricken Muppet video? Just enjoy it for Christ's sake

[@albievanwalsem6705]

This song is copiet by Peter Blanker, he made his dutch version of it... Tis moeilijk bescheiden te blijven

[@flyyspit]

BUT they love the 3 letter word.. WAR on something..

[@MichaelBrookham]

Is it safe to use the word "Hell" in a song on The Muppet Show? For the sake of the show, he could have changed it to "Heck".

[@nicholasczapiewski]

MichaelBrookham I was thinking the same thing, surprised they didn't change it up.

[@igotbandaids]

I thought so too.

[@themysteriousunknownrevealed]

Oh well

[@WilliamPierce38]

What does it matter. It’s a word in a song. 🤦‍♂️

[@jenpeterson3712]

@@WilliamPierce38 I agree with you

[@elizabethgartin9402]
