Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[C]Now a country boy called Shorty
And [F]a city boy named Dan
Had [C]to prove who could run the fastest
To [D]win miss Lucy's [G]hand
Now [C]Dan had all the money
And he [F]also had the looks
But [C]Shorty must have had something,
boys
That [G]can't be found in [C]books
[G]Well, a- cut across shorty,

[Verse 2]
[F]
shorty cut across
That's [C]what miss Lucy said
Cut across [F]shorty, shorty cut across
It's [G]you I want to wed
[C]

[Verse 3]
Now Dan had been in training
A [F]week before the race
He made up [C]his mind old Shorty
Would [D]end in second [G]place
And [C]Dan with his long legs a- flyin'
Left [F]shorty far behind
And [C]shorty heard him holler out
Mis[G]s Lucy, you'll soon be mine
[C]

[Verse 4]
Well, [G]a- cut [F]across shorty,
shorty cut across
That's [C]what miss Lucy said
Cut across [F]shorty, shorty cut across
It's [G]you I want to wed
[C]

[Verse 5]
But shorty wasn't worried
There was [F]a smile upon his face
He knew [C]that he was a- goin' to win
'Cause [D]Lucy had fixed the [G]race
And [C]just like that old story
About the [F]turtle and the hare
When [C]Dan crossed over the finish line
He [G]found shorty waiting there
[C]

[Verse 6]
Well, a- cut [F]across shorty,
shorty cut across
That's [C]what miss Lucy said
Cut across [F]shorty, shorty cut across
It's [G]you I want to [C]wed
It's [G]you I want to [C]wed
It's [G]you I want to [C]wed
It's you [G]I want to wed
