Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Well,[F][C][A][F][D][Bb][C]
I'm a red -hot picker,
I'm a six -string tickler,
[Cm]I'm a [D]finger -pickin',
what do you know?
Well, I'm a [G]time -bomb ticker,
a real bomber sticker,
stand back, honey, here I [Bb]go.
Well, I [C]met a little cutie,
a real sweet patootie,
[G]so I [D]figured, well, I'll come on slow.
I said, [G]my name is Reed,
and I got what [D]you need, [G]honey,
hang around till after [A]the show.[Bb]
Well, [Cm]after about [C]an hour
[Cm]of the wildwood [C]flower I had [D]done
slipped out of my thumb -pick
When [G]up walks a dude
starts coming en route
and says, son, I'm wise [A]to your [Bb]trick
He said, now [C]listen here, mister,
you're messing with my sister
Made a two [D]-handed fist out of one hand
Well, right [G]then I discovered
he ain't no music lover
And me, I'm a traveling [A]man, [Bb]whoa
I'm a [C]red -hot picker,
I'm a [Cm]six -string tickler
I'm a [D]finger -picking,
what do you know?
Hey, I'm a [Gm]time -bomb ticker,
[G]a real bumper sticker
Stand back, honey, [D]here I go
[C]I'm gettin' ready
Here [F]I go[C][A]
[F][D][C][D]
[G]
[A][Bb]
Well [C]sometimes later I met
another sweet tater
I said [D]honey I'm a hog about you
Just as [G]I was getting bolder
felt a hand on my shoulder
turned around and he was
six [A]foot two.[Bb]
He said, [C]I don't think you oughta,
cause this here's my daughter
and [D]there's one more thing
son you might know,
that [G]if you ain't quicker than
my big frog sticker
then that's gonna be all [C]she wrote.
[Bb]I said son, I'm [C]a red hot picker,
I'm a six string tickler,
[D]I'm a finger pickin', what do you know?
I'm a [Gm]buffalo nick[G]el,
a solid deal picker,
stand back cause here I [A]go.
[D]I'm [C]sor[F]ry. Hey[C].[Em]
[A][D][C][F][C]
