Country Bumpkin

G                                 
He walked into the bar and parked 
                 C              G
his lanky frame upon a tall barstool
     D
With a long soft Southern drawl said
"I'll just have a glass of anything 
        G
that's cool"
G                           
A bar room girl with hard and 
                       C         
knowing eyes slowly looked him up 
         G
and down
           C
And she thought "I wonder how on 
earth
      D                            
That country bumpkin found his way 
   G
to town"

[Chorus]
                            C    D
She said "Hello, country bumpkin"
"How's the frost out on the 
  G
pumpkin?"
"I've seen some sights but, man, 
         C       D
you're somethin'"
"Where'd ya come from, country 
 G
bumpkin?"

[Verse 2]
It was just a short year later in a 
                    C      
bed of joy-filled tears yet 
             G
death-like pain

D                              
Into this wondrous world of many 
                          G
wonders one more wonder came
G
That same woman's face was wrapped 
up
                       C      
In a raptured look of love and 
     G
tenderness
D                                 
As she marveled at the soft and 
warm and cuddly boy-child feeding at
    G
 her breast

[Chorus]
And she said "Hello, country 
 C      D
bumpkin"
                              G
"Fresh as frost out on the pumpkin"
"I've seen some sights but, babe, 
          C       D
you're somethin'"
                          G
"Mama loves her country bumpkin"

[Verse 3]
Forty years of hard work later in a 
                    C              
simple, quiet and peaceful country 
 G
place
     D
The heavy hand of time had not 
erased
The raptured wonder from the woman's
  G
 face
She was lying on her deathbed 
                        C      
knowing fully well her race was 
         G
nearly run
          D                     
But she softly smiled and looked 
into the sad eyes of her husband and
      G
 her son

[Chorus]
And she said "So long, country 
   C       D
bumpkin"
"The frost is gone now from on the 
   G
pumpkin"
"I've seen some sights and life's 
       C         D
been somethin'"
                            G
"See you later, country bumpkin"
                               C
She said "So long, country bumpkin"
"The frost is gone now from on the 
  G
pumpkin"
"I've seen some sights and life's 
        C        D
been somethin'"
                          G
"See you later, country bumpkin"
