to go across the country

          F          C
without a dad-blamed dime

G       C           F         C  
Mon  -  tana in the cold cold fall

  G        C           F     G     C

            G      C
since I was only   ten

      F           C
don't worry about me

F           G            C
if I should die of pleurisy

F

   G         C
or thick and thin

F          C              G      F    C
like bein' married to the little poor man

F         C
