One Sabbath [D] day big Sandy [A] Gray came into camp [B] with a Peavey on his shoulder
With a thunder [D] crack he dropped [A] his axe and the room [B] got a little [Bm] bit colder
[D] Said, come on [A] all you we got work to [D] do we [F#m] gotta give her [B] all we can give her
[A] There's a jam of logs at the little jog near the mouth of the [B] Musquash River
With no time [D] to pray on the [A] Lord's day they were hoping [B] for God's forgiveness
But the jam [D] was high in a troubled [A] sky and they set [Bm] out about their business
[D] They poked [A] with their poles and ran [D] with the rules and [Bm] tried to stay on their feet
[A] Every trick they tried one [D] man cried this log [Bm] jam's got us beat
[D]
