spend it on some real good grass, disappear in oh so fast

Chorus

Tell my story pain and glory, guess my occupation
Bm             F#m              E             A      A
free and easy, warm and breezy, overnight sensation

      D           G          A                    D
I got house pets, leer jets, tryin to learn about basinettes
G              D              A               D              D
oh Miss Piggy, dance with me, let me take you to the sea
D           G                A                  D
Dreamsicle, big Dill pickle, high school honeys sure were fickle
G              D           A                 D       D
I'll be damned country ham, takes me back to Alabam
