[Em]
[F#m] [Em]
[F#m] [Em] Pulling away,
[F#m] pulling [Em] away Now [D] his [Em] wagons are loaded, he's pulling [D]
away
Hard luck [G] is the fortune of all [D] womankind They're [F#m] always controlled, they're [G] always
confined Controlled [D] by their parents until [G] they are
wise [D] And slaves [G] to their husbands the rest [D] of their
lives I once [G] knew a girl and her story [D] was sad
She [F#m] always was courted by the [G] wagoner, Liz He [D] courted her truly by night [G] and by day
[D] Now his [G] wagons are loaded, he's pulling [D] away [F#m]
[Em] Pulling [F#m] away, pulling [Em] away
Now [D]
[G] he's pulling [D] away
Your parents [G] don't like me, they say [D] I'm too poor
They say [F#m] I'm not worthy to [G] enter your door [Em] Hard living's my [D]
pleasure
My [G] money's my own [D] And if [G] they don't like me they can leave [D] me
alone
[F#m] Long [Em] is the road, [F#m] dark [Em] is the sky
[F#m] Look over [Em] your shoulder, [A] he's waving
[D] goodbye
My wagon [G] needs loading, my whip [D] needs a man
So sit [F#m] down here by me for as long [G] as you can
My [D] wagons are loaded, my whip's [G] in my hand
[D] So fare [Em] thee well, darling, I'm leaving [D] this land
[F#m] Pulling, [Em]
[F#m] pulling [Em] away,
[D] [G] he's pulling [D] away
Now his wagons [G] are loaded, he's pulling [D] away
[N]

Come
[A] [C]
[D] in, David Brinkley.
[A] Down at the gates of the [F#] Metropolitan Transit Authority.
There it is rumored they're selling illustrated versions of the Tropic of Cancer.
[B]
[E] Also living, a burdensome tax on the population in the form of a subway fare increase.
[A]
Citizens, hear me out.
This could happen to you, God willing.
