LUMBERJACK
L. Payne
Recorded: 2/15/60

=================
/ = single strum
=================

Key: Bb / CAPO: 1st / Play: A

VERSE:
  A/                     D/ A/
I lived on a farm out in Iowa
  A/                                  E/
I pulled the corn and I worked in the hay
    A/                              D/
Got trapped by a girl but I wiggled free
          A             E       A
Heard the Oregon timber callin' me

CHORUS:
A                                 D     A
Will you tell me something Mister Lumberjack
A                                   E
Is it one for forward and three for back
E     A                         D/
Is it two for stop and four for go
A/                       D/      A/
Boy ask the whistle punk I don't know

VERSE: 
Well I learned this fact from a logger named Ray
You don't cut timber on a windy day
Stay out of the woods when the moisture's low
Or you ain't gonna live to collect your dough

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE:
         A                      D          A
Well you work in the woods from morin' til night
A                                   E
You laugh and sing and you cuss and fight
E  A                          D/
On Saturday night you go to Eugene's
         A                  E           A
And on a Sunday morin' your pockets are clean

REPEAT CHORUS
