 (C major) Keepin' doggies in

a thousand acre  (F major) yard

We need rain bad, but it ain't come  (F major) yet

Then  (G major) talk some trash
C 
to my old cachoe, me  (C major) dear
Well, I saw her first
F 
and I'm satisfied she's  (F major) mine

I'm the  (G major) one she talks to in closing  (C major) time

 (D major) come right  (F major) home
D 
G 
There's a  (D major) time of night I'm most  (G major) alone
C 
I've  (C major) seen the eagles soar
F 
in the Florida  (F major) sky
G 
There are  (G major) other sights
to soothe this cowboy's eye
C 
 (C major) But the prettiest thing I've
F 
seen around  (F major) here
D 
G 
Is the  (D major) sight of my old Miss Shelby dear  (G major) 
C 
And  (C major) the hardest time for me
G 
is after the sun goes  (G major) down
Bb 
C 
I'm  (B flat major) sittin' in the Gator  (C major) Bar

They they gather  (G major) round
C 
They  (C major) come to shoot a little bull
F 
and drink a  (F major) beer

And  (G major) talk some trash
C 
to my old patrol bee,  (C major) dear
They come to shoot a little bull
F
