So I'll see you in New York next week.
Okay, bye.
Mr.
Staggs?
Yes?
There's a gentleman here.
He says he's your Uncle Penn.
Uncle Penn is here?
You're kidding.
He's here?
Okay, send him in.
Hey, Uncle Penn.
How's everybody at home?
[Db] I heard he was bad, boy.
Huh?
But I [Bm] didn't know you'd sink to this.
Well, this is pretty [N] good.
And son, you're getting way above your race.
That's what's going on.
And it's a sad sight.
Well, Uncle Penn, I'll show you.

[A] [G]
I
[A] [G]
may look [Em] like a city [Eb] [G] slicker, shining [D] up through [G] my shoes.
Underneath [Em] I'm just a [Eb] cotton [G] picker, picking out a mess of [A] [Bb] flutes.
[B] [C] Show me [Em] where I start, [Bb] [B] [C] find a [Em] horse and cart.
[G] [Eb]
I'm just [Bb] a country boy, [Eb] country [G] boy at heart.
[Am]
[G]
I may look like [Em] a bank [Eb] [G] teller, wishing [D]
banks and [G] a file.
But I'd rather be [Em] a [Eb] hog caller, [G] [D] chewing cud on [A] the stile.
[Bb] [C] Show me where [Em] I start, [B] [C]
find a horse [G] and cart.
[Eb]
I'm [Bb] just a country boy, [Eb]
country boy [G] at heart.
