[Verse 1]
E A
My buddy's old man is back on the booze,
B
He's swinging a driver at a big bull moose,
E A
That keeps gettin' on the goddamn property,
B
Or so he says.
E A
Cigarettes are expensive and whisky ain't cheap,
B
Winters are bitter, but the summers are sweet,
E A B E
And you can get some honestly-priced smokes over at the rez,
E A B Bsus2 B E
If you're so inclined.
[Verse 2]
E A
Most of my time's spent in a big blue van,
B
Just travellin' the country with a five-piece band,
E A
Pick a little for the folks and sing when I can,
B E
Granted, I'm sober.
E A
And other days are meant for chorin',
B
Just workin' at the ranch to stave off boredom,
E A B E
And keepin' the calves from finding new ways to keel over,
E A B Bsus2 B E E6 E
Just livin' the dream.
[Verse 3]
E A
I was coolin' my heels down in Tennessee,
B
Post ’82 some buddies and me,
E
And we were shootin' the shit,
A B E
Till we ran outta ammunition.
E A
Some dude overheard from across the room,
B
And instead of mindin’ his own he just assumed,
E A B E
He'd sit down next us and join in on the conversation,
E A Aadd2 A Cadd2 C B E
Brought over some kinda beer, something called a IPA.
[Verse 4]
E A
He’s a Nashville kid in a cowboy hat,
B
And he couldn’t tell a shoelace from a lariat,
E A B E
And the furthest west he’d ever been was Ohio.
E A
He’s talkin’ to me says he’s looking for work,
B
And he didn’t mind gettin’ some dirt on his shirt,
E A B E
And would I be so kind as to hire him on, "well oh my oh",
E A B Bsus2 B E
Surprised he didn’t bring a resume.
[Verse 5]
E A
He said but if you’re doin' fence, then I ain’t for hire,
B
And if you’re doin' hay, then frankly I wouldn’t conspire,
B E
To ask me about doin' that either.
E A
I said “what are you good for?” and he said "Plenty",
B
I could see this conversation wasn’t going any which way,
E
And figured I’d do well just to leave here,
E A Aadd2 A Aadd2 C Cadd2 C Cadd2 B E
So long buddy, keep your IPAs.
[Verse 6]
E A
Yeah, this city life has sure got me tired,
B
And it’s hard for a prairie boy to admire,
E A B E
All the concrete and the towerin’ skyscrapers.
E A
So just as soon as I’m able to find my hat,
B
I believe I’ll leave and head on back home,
B E
Where the tallest buildings are all grain elevators,
E A B Bsus2 B E
Long gone to Saskatchewan.
[Verse 7]
E A
Yeah, I’m outta this place and bound for the farm,
B
And I’m not takin' no greenhorn along,
E A B E
I have a hard enough time just keepin’ track of myself,
E A
But if you’re down in Nashville and tryin’ to look cool,
B
But you can’t tell a pretty palomino from a mule,
E A B7 E
Take my advice and leave the buckaroo hat on the shelf.
[Outro]
E
Heh, heh, heh.
