With Memphis high motor dormitory

They made me hand my sword in for a wife

For just because I've triumphed as a slaver

Brought booty back to Egypt by the ton

Of this and every month, I'm now the flavor

And scheduled to do things I've never done

And why should I tell you this, a stranger I just met
        Cm                 F               Bb
A woman who in hours from now I'll certainly forget

My days out on the field are all but ended
Bb/G                                         C
They'll put me out to grass which means the throne
F                                    Bb/C   C
Bedecked and bejeweled alongside my intended
Eb              C           Bb/G   C
I feel as though my heart is set in stone

F                            Bb/C  C
But maybe I am being far too gloomy
Bb/G                                    C
Yes, maybe I'll make waves in pastures new

Find government and politics come to me
Bb/G                           Bb/C    Eb   F
As naturally as I now talk to you
