D
He walked up to the bar and parked his
D7 G D
Lanky frame upon a tall barstool
A7
And with a long soft southern drawl said
D
I'll just have a glass of anything that's cool
D
B barroom girl with hard and knowing eyes
D7 G D
Slowly looked him up and down
A7
And she thought I wonder how on earth
D
That country bumpkin found his way to town
D7 G
And she said hello country bumpkin
A7 D
How's the frost out on the pumpkin
D7 G
I've seen some sights but man you're something
A7 D
Where'd you come from country bumpkin
D
It was just a short year later in a bed
D7 G D
Of joy-filled tears yet death-like pain
A7
Into this wondrous world of many wonders
D
One more wonder came
D
That same woman's face was wrapped up
D7 G D
In a raptured look of love and tenderness
A7
As she marveled at the soft and warm
D
And cuddly boy child feeding at her breast
D G
And she said hello country bumpkin
A7 D
Fresh as frost out on the pumpkin
D7 G
I've seen some sights but babe you're something
A7 D
Mama loves her country bumpkin
D
Forty years of hard work later
D7 G D
In a simple quiet and peaceful country place
A7
The heavy hand of time had not erased
D
The raptured wonder from the woman's face
D
She was lying on her death bed
D7 G D
Knowing fully well her race was nearly run
A7
But she softly smiled and looked into
D
The sad eyes of her husband and her son
D G
And she said so long country bumpkin
A7 D
The frost is gone now from the pumpkin
D7 G
I've seen some sights and life's been something
A7 D
See you later country bumpkin
