B
He walked up to the bar and parked his
B7 E B
Lanky frame upon a tall barstool
F#7
And with a long soft southern drawl said
B
I'll just have a glass of anything that's cool
B
G# barroom girl with hard and knowing eyes
B7 E B
Slowly looked him up and down
F#7
And she thought I wonder how on earth
B
That country bumpkin found his way to town
B7 E
And she said hello country bumpkin
F#7 B
How's the frost out on the pumpkin
B7 E
I've seen some sights but man you're something
F#7 B
Where'd you come from country bumpkin
B
It was just a short year later in a bed
B7 E B
Of joy-filled tears yet death-like pain
F#7
Into this wondrous world of many wonders
B
One more wonder came
B
That same woman's face was wrapped up
B7 E B
In a raptured look of love and tenderness
F#7
As she marveled at the soft and warm
B
And cuddly boy child feeding at her breast
B E
And she said hello country bumpkin
F#7 B
Fresh as frost out on the pumpkin
B7 E
I've seen some sights but babe you're something
F#7 B
Mama loves her country bumpkin
B
Forty years of hard work later
B7 E B
In a simple quiet and peaceful country place
F#7
The heavy hand of time had not erased
B
The raptured wonder from the woman's face
B
She was lying on her death bed
B7 E B
Knowing fully well her race was nearly run
F#7
But she softly smiled and looked into
B
The sad eyes of her husband and her son
B E
And she said so long country bumpkin
F#7 B
The frost is gone now from the pumpkin
B7 E
I've seen some sights and life's been something
F#7 B
See you later country bumpkin
