A

[verse]

A
I pulled out for San Anton',
  D
I never felt so good.
   A
My woman said she'd meet me there
       D
And of course, I knew she would.
    A
The coachman, he hit me for my hook
       D
And he asked me my name.
  A
I give it to him right away,
      D
And I hung my head in shame.

[chorus]
A
Lo and behold! Lo and behold!
D
Lookin' for my lo and behold,
C      G          A
Get me outa here, my dear man!

[verse]

A
I come into Pittsburgh
   D
At six-thirty flat.
  A
I found myself a vacant seat
  D
An' I put down my hat.
A
"What's the matter, Molly, dear,
   D
What's the matter with your mound?"
A
"What's it to ya, Moby Dick?
   D
This is chicken town!"


[chorus]
A
Lo and behold! Lo and behold!
D
Lookin' for my lo and behold,
C      G          A
Get me outa here, my dear man!

[verse]
  A
I bought myself a herd of moose,
   D
One day she could call her own.*)
  A
Well, she came out the very next day
  D
To see where they had flown.
  A
I'm goin' down to Tennessee,
  D
Get me a truck 'r somethin'.
  A
Gonna save my money and rip it up!


[chorus]
A
Lo and behold! Lo and behold!
D
Lookin' for my lo and behold,
C      G          A
Get me outa here, my dear man!

[verse]
  A
Now, I come in on a ferris wheel
  D
An' boys, I sure was slick.
  A
I come in like a ton of bricks,
  D
Laid a few tricks on 'em.
A
Goin' back to Pittsburgh,
D
Count up to thirty,
A
Round that horn and ride that herd,
D
Gonna thread up!**)

[chorus]
A
Lo and behold! Lo and behold!
D
Lookin' for my lo and behold,
C      G          A
Get me outa here, my dear man!
