I got a Ghundred and sixty acres in the valley
Got a hundred and sixty acres of the bD7est
Got an oGld stove there that'll coCok three sGquare
And a bDunk where I can lay me down to Grest.
Up at dCawn to greet the sGun
I've forgDotten what a care or worryG means
Head for hCome when day is doGne
With my poA7cket money jinglin' in my jeD7ans.
I've got a hGundred and sixty acres full of sunshine
Got a hundred and sixty million stars aD7bove
Got an oGld paid hoss and the guyC who's boGss
On the hDundred and sixty acres that I Glove!
Up at dCawn to greet the sGun
I've forgDotten what a care or worry Gmeans
Head for hCome when day is doGne
With my poA7cket money jinglin' in my D7jeans.
I've got Ga hundred and sixty acres full of sunshine
Got a hundred and sixty million stars abD7ove
Got an oGld paid hoss and the guyC who's boGss
On the hDundred and sixty acres that I Glove!
Got aGn old paid hoss and the Cguy who's boGss
On the Dhundred and sixty acres that I love! G
