Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I'm[G] Mi[D]ke [A]Fink
King of the [D]river

[Verse 2]
[D]Listen to the thunder
[G]Hear the winds roar
[A]Hurricane's a- coming
Board up the [D]door

[Verse 3]
[G]Load up the cannon
[D]Call up the law
[E]Worstest calamity
That [A]folks never saw

[Verse 4]
[D]Girls run and hide
[G]Brave men shiver
[A]I'm Mike Fink
King of the [D]river

[Verse 5]
[D]Oh, he's a ring- tail roarer
And a tough old alligator
Oh, he's a bull- nosed bully
And a [A]real de[D]populator

[Verse 6]
Oh, what a deep divin catfish [G]That
always come up dry
[A]He's gonna live forever
Born too mean to [D]die

[Interlude 1]
[D][A]
[D][G][A]
[D]

[Verse 7]
[D]Dug the whole Ohio
[G]With my big toe
[A]Filled her up with water
Made the critter [D]flow

[Verse 8]
[G]Stomped out the valley
[D]Scraped up the ridge
[E]Wade across the river
'Cause [A]I don't [E]trust no [A]bridge

[Verse 9]
[D]And then an earthquake
[G]Make mountains [Gm]quiver
[A]I'm Mike Fink
King of the [D]river

[Verse 10]
[D]Oh he can uptalk a lawyer
[Incomprehensible]
Oh, he can upchop thunder
And her [A]son say that he can

[Verse 11]
[D]Oh, what a fightin' devil
[G]He'll spit right in your eye
[A]He's gonna live forever
Born too mean to [D]die
(Born too mean to die)
