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