[Verse 1]
G
I pounded on a farmhouse lookin' for a place to stayI was mighty, mighty tired I had come a long, long way
C I said "Hey hey in there is there anybody home?" G I was standin' on the steps feelin' most alone D When out comes a farmer he must have thought that I was nuts G He immediately looked at me and stuck a gun into my guts
[Verse 2]
G
I fell down to my bended kneesSaying "I dig farmers don't shoot me, please"
C He cocked his rifle and began to shout G "Are you that travelin' salesman that I have heard about?" D I said "No, no, no I'm a doctor and it's true G I'm a clean-cut kid and I been to college too"
[Verse 3]
G
Then in comes his daughter whose name was RitaShe looked like she stepped out of La Dolce Vita
C I immediately tried to cool it with her dad G And told him what a nice pretty farm he had D He said "What do doctors know about farms, pray tell?" G I said "I was born at the bottom of a wishing well"
[Verse 4]
G
Well, by the dirt 'neath my nails I guess he knew I wouldn't lieHe said "I guess you're tired" He said it kind of sly
C I said "Yes, ten thousand miles today I drove" G He said "I got a bed for you underneath the stove D Just one condition you can go to sleep right now G That you don't touch my daughter and in the morning, milk the cows"
[Verse 5]
G
I was sleepin' like a rat when I heard something jerkin'There stood Rita lookin' just like Tony Perkins
C She said "Would you like to take a shower? I'll show you up to the door" G I said "Oh, no, no I've been through this movie before" D I knew I had to split but I did not know how G When she said "Would you like to take that shower now?"
[Verse 6]
G
Well, I couldn't leave unless the old man chased me out'Cause I'd already promised that I'd milk his cows
C I had to say something to strike him very weird G So I yelled "I like Fidel Castro and his beard" D Rita looked offended but she got out of the way G As he came charging down the stairs sayin' "What's that I heard you say?"
[Verse 7]
G
I said, "I like Fidel Castro I think you heard me right"And I ducked as he swung at me with all his might
C Rita mumbled something 'Bout her mother on the hill G As his fist, it hit the icebox he said he's going to kill D Me if I don't get out the door in two seconds flat G "You unpatriotic Rotten doctor Commie rat"
[Verse 8]
G
Well, he threw a Reader's Digest at my head and I did runI did a somersault as I seen him get his gun
C And crashed through the window at a hundred miles an hour G And landed fully blast in his garden flowers D Rita said "Come back" and he started to load G The sun was comin' up and I was runnin' down the road
[Verse 9]
G
Well, I don't figure I'll be back there for a spellEven though Rita moved away and got a job at a motel
C He still waits for me constant on the sly G He wants to turn me in to the F.B.I D Me, I romp and stompings thankful as I romp G Without freedom of speech I might be in the swamp
