A - D - E - A

With a whoop and a holler and a dime and a dollar,

I’m a lucky son of a gun,
A D E A
wherever I go, I guess you know, I tip
my hat to none.

With a whoop and a holler and a dime and a dollar,

1. I’m just a rollin’
stone, I wander on my own,
E A - E
and
always take my own advice.
A - B7
I’ve travelled every trail, and never been in jail,
E A
‘course
I’ve deserved it once or twice.

2. My horse has been my pal, but once I met a gal,
E A - E
and
thought a kiss would be no crime.
A
- B7
I darn near lost my life, she was
the sheriff’s wife,
E A
I just got out of town in
time.

3. Now when I leave a town and get to beddin’
down,
E A - E
I kinda
wink up at the stars.

Nobody knows my name, they
only know I came,
E A
and
drank my weight in all the bars.
