Verse 2
Bb7
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
Eb7
Oh, the engineers would see him
sitting in the shade
Bb7
Strumming with the rhythm
that the drivers made
F7
The people passing by
they would stop and say
Bb7
"Oh my what that little
country boy could play"
Go go
