Tom Russell - Oil field girls

N.C.

Those oil field ^Fgirls all taste of ^Gmwhisky There thoughts are ^Bbfree there cloths are ^Ctorn They walk the ^Amstrip like painted ^Dmshadows Cursing the ^Bbnight when man was ^Cborn

There's one name ^GmFrida^C and one named ^FAngel There's a rose of ^Gmhatred^Bb and ragtime ^Cgal All legs and ^Amheart bright lips in the ^Dmmoonlight Young man will ^Bbdie at the turn of a ^Ccurl

I'm packing my ^Fbag I'm shipping out on a ^Gmfreighter I'll lick my ^Bbwounds in a far off ^Cworld One hand on my ^Amheart one hand on a ^Dmbottle Just a drunker's ^Bbdream of the oil field ^Cgirls

Da da da ^Fdum de de de de ^Gmde de de de ^Bbdo do do do ^Cde do do do ^Amdo do do do do ^Dmdo do do de ^Bbdo do do do de ^Cdum

Here's a round for the ^Fpriest here's a round for the ^Gmbegger Here's a round for the ^Bbrouges all over this ^Cworld But I'll drink me a ^Amcase of old ^Dmpeculiar For I raise me a ^Bbglass to the oil field ^Cgirls

Those oil field ^Fgirls all taste of ^Gmwhisky There thoughts are ^Bbfree there cloths are ^Ctorn They walk the ^Amstrip like painted ^Dmshadows Cursing the ^Bbnight when man was ^Cborn
