This was a regional hit for the Nightcrawlers in a zillion different cities
 from roughly 10/65 through 4/67, but never hit in enough areas simultaneously
 to squeak any higher than #85 in Billboard.  No, I don't know what it's about,
 either.  --AWR

 Verse 1: [12-string plays intro riff throughout]
 
 	A        E    D         A     (A) E  D  A
 	I don't care what they say
 	A          E       D  A     (A) E  D  A
 	I'm gonna keep it anyway
 	A        E          D            A     (A) E  D  A
 	I won't let them stretch their necks
 	A                       E             D            A     (A) E  D  A
 	To see my little black egg with the little white specks
 
 Chorus:
 
 	F#m              E           [slide up to F#m throughout]
 	I found it in a tree
 	F#m             E
 	Just the other day
 	F#m           E
 	And now it's mine, all mine
 	F#                   E	     [yes, F# major here]
 	They won't take it away
 
 	[my Kapp single goes directly to next verse; the version on the
 	 Rhino "Nuggets" comp repeats intro riff twice]
 
 Verse 2:
 
 	Here comes Mary, here comes Lee
 	I'll bet what they want to see
 	I won't let them stretch their necks
 	To see my little black egg with the little white specks
 
 [repeat chorus]
 
 Verse 3:
 
 	Oh, goldurn, what can I do?
 	The little black egg's gonna tell on you
 	I won't let them stretch their necks
 	To see my little black egg with the little white specks
 
 Coda:
 
 	     A            E    D   A
 	The little black egg...      [repeat to fade]
