The Band – Rag Mama Rag (Guitar)

D                                   G
 Rag Mama Rag; I can't believe it's true.

D                             G
 Rag Mama Rag, a-what did you do?

  D                 D7
I crawled up to the railroad track,

        G             C7
Let the four nineteen scratch my back.

D
 Sag Mama sag, now, what's come over you?

                                   G
Rag Mama Rag, I'm pulling out your gag.

      D                      D7
Gonna turn you lose, like an old caboose;

      G              D
Got a tail I need to drag.

  A7                        C
I ask about your turtle and you ask about the weather.

      G
Well, I can't jump the hurdle and we can't get together.

A7  N.C.
  We could be relaxing in my sleeping bag,

D                                 G
 Rag Mama Rag; there's nowhere to go,

D
 Rag Mama Rag, come on resin up the bow.

D                          G
 Rag Mama Rag, where do ya roam?

D
 Rag Mama Rag, bring your skinny little body right home.

     D               D7
It's dog eat dog and cat eat mouse,

        G                 C7
You can Rag Mama Rag, all over my house.

D                                                  G
 Hail stones beatin' on the roof, the bourbon is a hundred proof.

     D                             C              G
It's you and me and the telephone, our destiny is quite well known.

D                               C                     G        D
 We don't need to sit and brag; all we gotta do is... Rag Mama Rag.

D                          G
 Rag Mama Rag, where do ya roam?

D
 Rag Mama Rag, bring your skinny little body right home.
