Once upon a time ago
Way up in the land of sleet and snow

How this fairytale would go, I could not have known
G C Am7 D7 G

From Livingston to Palestine

Trying to pursue my dream of love
Well, it was then I met this girl so fine
She made me think so fast, I left my thoughts behind
Am7 D7 G C Am7 D7 G
And I tried to pass for a sophisticated Northern man
I said, "Why yes, my dear, I know exactly what you mean
Because there's not so much I haven't done or seen
And may I say your eyes are the loveliest shade of jade"
Refrain

Well, it was then I knew I had made my first mistake
She did not even start to wait

I've got a picket fence with a picket house
And I don't need no fast-talking Northern man like you around"

And suddenly the whole world became a a better place

I come from where the river is wide and the crawfish hide"

Well, she just looked at me and she shook her head
"Your lines are pretty sad," she said
"You are a lonely, weak, pathetic man
If this is doing the best you can"

Yes, three strikes right across the plate
And as I hollered, "Honey, please wait!"

And whose kingdom may have just gone home with a nother kingdom
