Country Bumpkin (with Lyrics) - Cal Smith Chords

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ He walked into the bar and parked his lanky [C] frame upon a [G] tall barstoon. _ _ _ _ _
[D] And with a long, soft southern drawl said, I'll just have a glass of anything [G] that's good. _ _ _ _ _
A barroom girl with heart and knowing eyes [C] slowly looked him up and [G] down. _ _ _
And [D] she thought, I wonder how on earth that country pumpkin found [G] his way to town.
_ And she said, hello [C] country pumpkin, _ _ [G] _ [D] how's the frost out [G] on the pumpkin?
_ _ I've seen some sights, but man, [C] you're something.
_ _ [D] Where'd you come [G] from, country pumpkin?
_ _ _ _ It was just a short year later, and a bed [C] of joy filled tears, yet [G] death like pain. _ _ _ _
[D] Into this wondrous world of many wonders, one more [G] wonder came.
_ _ _ _ That same woman's face was wrapped up in a raptured [C] look of love and [G] tenderness. _ _ _ _ _
As she [D] marveled at the soft and warm and cuddly boy child feeding [G] at her breast.
_ _ And she said, hello [C] country pumpkin, _ _ [D] precious frost [G] out on the pumpkin.
_ _ I've seen some sights, but [C] baby, you're something.
_ _ [D] Mama loves her [G] country pumpkin.
_ _ _ _ Forty years of hard work later, in a simple, [C] quiet and peaceful [G] country place.
_ _ _ _ The heavy [D] hand of time had not erased the raptured wonder from the [G]
woman's face.
_ _ _ _ She was lying on her deathbed, knowing fully [C] well her race was [G] nearly run.
_ _ _ But she [D] softly smiled and looked into the sad eyes of her [G] husband and her son.
_ And she said, so long [C] country pumpkin, _ _ [D] the frost is gone now from the pumpkin.
_ _ I've seen some sights and [C] life's been something.
[F#] _ _ [D] See you later [G] country pumpkin. _
_ She said, so long [C] country pumpkin, _
[Em] [D] the frost is gone [G] now from the pumpkin. _
I've seen some sights and [C] life's been something. _ _
[D] See you later country [G] pumpkin. _ _ _
