Graham) Subject: OLD SHOWBOAT OLD SHOWBOAT Recorded by Stonewall Jackson Written by Marijohn Wilkin and Fred Burch [C] I blew into Dallas, feelin' kinda low Thought I'd make me a bit of change, [G] at the rod-e-[C] o Heard the line boss sayin': "You onery cowpoke, Fifteen bills to any man, [G] who can ride Show-[C] boat." ([D] Who can ride Show-[G] boat) Showboat you old cuss, I'm gonna ride you or [G7] I'll bust [D] Hold the reins, watch the chains Turn 'im loose, that cayuse [D7] I'm gonna [G] ride. They put me in the saddle, the reins were in my hand Then I saw her sittin' there, watchin' from the stands She was kinda pretty, a blonde with big blue eyes I could see it hurt her so, to see me have to ride (To see me have to ride) Showboat, that old cuss, I'm gonna ride him or I'll bust Hold the reins, watch the chains Turn 'im loose, that cayuse im gonna ride. He bucked me once a-runnin', then he looked me in the eye I slid down around his neck, reachin' for the sky Then he sent me flyin', like a little bird Lord, I think when I came down, I ate ten pounds of dirt (Ate ten pounds of dirt) Showboat you old cuss, I'm gonna ride you or I'll bust Hold the reins, ain't it a shame That cayuse done thowed me loose, and broke my leg. I woke up in the General, feelin' kinda hurt Till I found that blue-eyed blonde turned out to be my nurse She fixed me with patches and love I thought was free Till she said: "Now cowboy, you're gonna marry me." (Gonna marry me) Showboat, you old cuss, you done fixed me up much worse Hold the reins, ain't it a shame I'm getting married and Old Showboat you're to blame. TAG: I'm getting married and Old Showboat you're to blame. Fade: Repeat tag. |
