         D                                     E 
	Down the road a ways i've heard say a new day's comin' on 
                   A                                D  
	Where the women folks are friendly and the law leaves you alone 
                                             E 
	I'll believe it when i see it and i haven't seen it yet 
                   B                               E   
	Don't mind me,keep on talking i'm just looking for my hat

                                                                 A 
	How that border crosswind feelin' makes a fool out of a man 
		                              E 
	If i never felt the sunshine hell i would not curse the rain 
                                                                   A

Verse 2: 
         D                                    E        
	Me and Louie,Zig and Bobby  used to chase across the yard 
                 A                 D   
	Back in 1947 that's when more than times was hard 
                                                  E 
	Pity me i didn't find a line in time and like a fool 
                     B                     E       
	In front of God and everybody i politely blew my cool

                                                             A 
	When you're down in Madamoros gettin' busted by the man 
	                                       E 
	If i'd never felt the sunshine,hell i would not curse the rain 
                                                                   A 
	If my feet could fit a railroad track i guess i'd been a train
