Verse 1
Am 
Here's a song about two of Virginia's most famous,
internationally famous lovers.
Oh my wife's name is Lorena
and you really should have
seen her.
She's beautiful is
E 
what I always said.
My name is John Wayne Bobbin.
I work hard at my job.
Am 
It was my right to have a little fun in bed.
E 
Am 
Well, she was n't in the mood then,
and I must have gotten rude then,
A 
Dm 
and I guess I got a little out of line.
I was finished, I was sleeping,
A 
when Lorena came a -creeping,
E 
and she took something important
Am 
E 
Am 
that was mine.
E 
Am 
Yes, my angry little wifey
took her little kitchen knifey,
A 
Am 
she did a little homemade surgery.
E 
She took the knife I bought her,
she made me a little shorter
Am 
And she took off with the very best of me
E 
Am 
She jumped into her Toyota,
she took off with my Promoter
A 
And she knew how much I
missed her
Dm 
when she'd gone
Then Lorena told a copy
A 
where she'd flung my little floppy
Am 
E 
An  d a very kindly doctor
Am 
E 
Am 
sewed it on
E 
Am 
I  got back my little buddy,
it's my little understudy.
A 
Dm 
It's going to work according to reports,
but it cowers and it cringes
A 
Am 
and it's tender around the hinges.
E 
Am 
So I guess I better keep it in my sorts.
Bb 
Thank you.
Bb 
Thank you very much.
