My Long Skinny Lanky Sarah Jane Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Not many miles from here
is I get [C]my meal,
Waltham, [G]dear.
There's a lady that's
got me on a [D]string.
[G]She's the worst you ever saw.
[C]She nearly broke my [G]jaw.
She made me carry my
left arm in a sling.
She's my [C]darling, my lady.
She's [G]not mean and lazy.
I'm back, bowlegged, and she's lame.
[D]Oh, no,[G] just like a cork,
she's the [C]terror of
New
York
[G]She's my long, skinny, lanky
Sarah
Jane
Oh,
[C]Jane, my good old
[G]Jane
Won't you come [A]back to your
bonehead once [D]again?
[G]Oh, they say she's mighty nice,
but [C]her armpit smells like [G]spice
She's my long, skinny, lanky
Sarah
[C]Jane[G]
[C][D][G][C][G]
Oh, promised to meet me
when the [C]clock struck 17
[G]Down at the stockyard about three
miles out of [D]town
There were pig[G]s being figured,
and [C]tough old
Texas steer[G]s
Sure long sticks, 14 [D]cents a [G]pound
She's my [C]darlin', my lady,
she's [G]not needin' lady
I'm back, bowlegged, and she's [D]ready
Oh, they [G]say her teeth are false
Oh, [C]they rattle when she walks
[G]She's my long, skinny, lanky
Sarah
Jane
Oh,
[C]Jane, my good old
[G]Jane
Won't you come [A]back to your
bonehead once [D]again
Oh, they [G]say her breath is sweet
But I'd [C]rather smell her feet
[G]She's my long skinny lanky sergeant
