[Verse 1]
D G
My buddy's old man is back on the booze,
A
He's swinging a driver at a big bull moose,
D G
That keeps gettin' on the goddamn property,
A
Or so he says.
D G
Cigarettes are expensive and whisky ain't cheap,
A
Winters are bitter, but the summers are sweet,
D G A D
And you can get some honestly-priced smokes over at the rez,
D G A Asus2 A D
If you're so inclined.
[Verse 2]
D G
Most of my time's spent in a big blue van,
A
Just travellin' the country with a five-piece band,
D G
Pick a little for the folks and sing when I can,
A D
Granted, I'm sober.
D G
And other days are meant for chorin',
A
Just workin' at the ranch to stave off boredom,
D G A D
And keepin' the calves from finding new ways to keel over,
D G A Asus2 A D D6 D
Just livin' the dream.
[Verse 3]
D G
I was coolin' my heels down in Tennessee,
A
Post ’82 some buddies and me,
D
And we were shootin' the shit,
G A D
Till we ran outta ammunition.
D G
Some dude overheard from across the room,
A
And instead of mindin’ his own he just assumed,
D G A D
He'd sit down next us and join in on the conversation,
D G Gadd2 G Cadd2 C A D
Brought over some kinda beer, something called a IPA.
[Verse 4]
D G
He’s a Nashville kid in a cowboy hat,
A
And he couldn’t tell a shoelace from a lariat,
D G A D
And the furthest west he’d ever been was Ohio.
D G
He’s talkin’ to me says he’s looking for work,
A
And he didn’t mind gettin’ some dirt on his shirt,
D G A D
And would I be so kind as to hire him on, "well oh my oh",
D G A Asus2 A D
Surprised he didn’t bring a resume.
[Verse 5]
D G
He said but if you’re doin' fence, then I ain’t for hire,
A
And if you’re doin' hay, then frankly I wouldn’t conspire,
A D
To ask me about doin' that either.
D G
I said “what are you good for?” and he said "Plenty",
A
I could see this conversation wasn’t going any which way,
D
And figured I’d do well just to leave here,
D G Gadd2 G Gadd2 C Cadd2 C Cadd2 A D
So long buddy, keep your IPAs.
[Verse 6]
D G
Yeah, this city life has sure got me tired,
A
And it’s hard for a prairie boy to admire,
D G A D
All the concrete and the towerin’ skyscrapers.
D G
So just as soon as I’m able to find my hat,
A
I believe I’ll leave and head on back home,
A D
Where the tallest buildings are all grain elevators,
D G A Asus2 A D
Long gone to Saskatchewan.
[Verse 7]
D G
Yeah, I’m outta this place and bound for the farm,
A
And I’m not takin' no greenhorn along,
D G A D
I have a hard enough time just keepin’ track of myself,
D G
But if you’re down in Nashville and tryin’ to look cool,
A
But you can’t tell a pretty palomino from a mule,
D G A7 D
Take my advice and leave the buckaroo hat on the shelf.
[Outro]
D
Heh, heh, heh.
