-77 -6 -6 7 -65 5 -3-3* 5   5   5 
A-s I was a go-ing on down the road 
 -6  7   -7  -7 7  -6  7 -7  7    7
with a tired te-am and a hea-vy load 
-77   -6   -67 -65  -3  -3*  5   5    5 
 I  cracked my whip and the lead-er sprung  
-67  -7   8  8-7 -6  7 -7-6  7   -6
 I  says day-day to the wag-on tongue.

A-nd hit 'em up a tu-ne call-ed 
-7  -7  7   7    -6
