[Intro]
D
[Verse]
D
This mornin' I jumped on my horse and went out for a ride
D
Some wild outlaws chased me and they shot me in the side
D
So I crawled into a wild cat's cave to find a place to hide
D
But some pirates found me a sleepin' there and soon they had me tied
D
Till a lady zombie cut me loose and begged to be my bride
D
So I said I'd come back Wednesday but I must admit I lied
D
Cause I run away into the swamp but I forgot my guide
D
And I stepped into some quicksand and no matter how I tried
D
I couldn't get out until I met a crocodile named Clyde
D
Who took me to some cannibals who planned to have me fried
D
They built a fire under me and I swear I almost cried
D
Till an eagle come and swooped me up and through the air we flied
D
But he dropped me in a boilin' lake a thousand miles wide
N.C.
And you know what happened then I died
