A                    D          A                E
She was sitting in a kiss tree, growing from the ground.
A               D                 E                    A
And everytime I passed her way, she'd throw her kisses down.
A                   D             A              E
Well I know I ain't handsome, I'm bashful as can be!
A                   D             E                   A
I'm crazy about her kisses, but I ain't gonna climb a tree!

A                       D        A      E

Cause I ride all day and sleep all night with a horse and a herd of 

steers.
A                          D          A              E
Now they're saying I ain't human, but I really don't prefer!
A                    D                E                 A
To go to bed with my six guns on, and never take off my spurs.

Verse 3:
One night out on the prarie, the moon was shinging bright.
I put my arms around about her, and things were going right.
Then I had to tell her about Texas, I is proud of my Texas drawl.
The moon went up and the sun come down, and I didn't kiss her at all.

Only one for me.
