C
He walked up to the bar and parked his
C7FC
Lanky frame upon a tall barstool
G7
And with a long soft southern drawl said
C
I'll just have a glass of anything that's cool
C
A barroom girl with hard and knowing eyes
C7FC
Slowly looked him up and down
G7
And she thought I wonder how on earth
C
That country bumpkin found his way to town
C7F
And she said hello country bumpkin
G7C
How's the frost out on the pumpkin
C7F
I've seen some sights but man you're something
G7C
Where'd you come from country bumpkin
C
It was just a short year later in a bed
C7FC
Of joy-filled tears yet death-like pain
G7
Into this wondrous world of many wonders
C
One more wonder came
C
That same woman's face was wrapped up
C7FC
In a raptured look of love and tenderness
G7
As she marveled at the soft and warm
C
And cuddly boy child feeding at her breast
CF
And she said hello country bumpkin
G7C
Fresh as frost out on the pumpkin
C7F
I've seen some sights but babe you're something
G7C
Mama loves her country bumpkin
C
Forty years of hard work later
C7FC
In a simple quiet and peaceful country place
G7
The heavy hand of time had not erased
C
The raptured wonder from the woman's face
C
She was lying on her death bed
C7FC
Knowing fully well her race was nearly run
G7
But she softly smiled and looked into
C
The sad eyes of her husband and her son
CF
And she said so long country bumpkin
G7C
The frost is gone now from the pumpkin
C7F
I've seen some sights and life's been something
G7C
See you later country bumpkin
