     E                      A 
In a flat Forty-One with my Strat by the door 
       Dsus4        D 
We was goin' to the country 
                 E 
For what we came for

I'm sure you've smelled the trees in the air

Just the joy to get there

I was approaching Simonton

Down by the cotton gin

There was old man Berkman

Trying to flag me in

He asked if I would stay a while 
    A 
And if I needed gas 
  Dsus4            D 
I said, "No thanks anyhow

I don't drive too fast"

Now the big city lights are at hand
