[Verse 1]
    Em
Kaw-Liga, was a wooden Indian standin' over by the door
Fell in love with a Choctaw maid over in the Georgia store
    Em             B
Kaw-Liga, oooooooh

Em                                B
Standing there, don't ever let it show
She don't ever answer yes or no [Riff] Em G x4 [Verse 2]
   Em
He always wore his Sunday feathers and carried this old black hawk

Em
Maiden wore her beads and braids and hoped someday he'd talk

    Em             B
Kaw-Liga, oooooooh

Em                                B
Standing there, don't ever show a sign

                                     Em
'Cause his heart was made of knotty pine
[Chorus]
E
Poor ol' Kaw-Liga, you ain't never got a kiss

A
Poor ol' Kaw-Liga, you don't know what you missed

E                                 B
Is it any wonder that his face is red

                              Em
Kaw-Liga, you poor ol' wooden head
[Solo] | E | E | E | E | | A | A | A | A | | E | E | E | B | | B | B | [Riff] Em G x4 [Verse 3]
    Em
Kaw-Liga, was a lonely Indian, never went nowhere

Em
Heart was set on Choctaw maiden with the long black hair

    Em             B
Kaw-Liga, oooooooh

Em                                B
Standing there, don't ever show a sign
'Cause his heart was made of knotty pine [Riff] Em G x4 [Verse 4]
    Em
And then one day a wealthy customer bought the Indian maid

Em
Took her, oh, so far away, and ol' Kaw-Liga stayed

    Em             B
Kaw-Liga, oooooooh

Em                                B
Standing there as lonesome as can be

           B                                Em
Awww, just wishin' he was still an old pine tree
[Chorus]
E
Poor ol' Kaw-Liga, you just ain't never had no kissin'

A
Poor ol' Kaw-Liga, Hoss, you don't know what you're missin'

E                                  B
Is it any wonder that your face is red
Kaw-Liga, you poor ol' wooden head [Outro] (Riff)
Em          G
     Just a head

Em          G
     Just a head

Em      G x2
                                                  (Em)
