[Verse 1]
[G]Her [C]eye[G] s [C]was red,
her name was
[G]Helen.
Her head looked like a watermel[C]on.
Her hair was long, she [G]had a tony.
Her neck looked like a roll of bo[C]logna.
Her [F]teeth stuck out so firm she
didn't [C]have much sense
She could [D]gnaw an ear of corn
right [G]through a picket fence
[C]Her[G] mar[C]riage license cost a quarte[G]r
On the
Tennessee [C]bor[G]der[C][G]
[C][G]
[C]
One [F]night I took her out to
[C]see what we could see
Just [D]then he saw her husband
and he [G]stood six [C]foot three
He had brass knuckles made to [G]or der
Now my teeth are scattered on the
Tennessee [C]bor[G]der[C]
Her hair was red, her name was
[G]Hannah
Her nose looked like a big ba[C]nana
She weighed so much, he had some [G]trouble
He thought that he was seeing [C]double
He [F]put his arm around her,
and [C]he tried to hug her
But he [D]couldn't get close enough,
cause she [G]had too much [C]blubber
She was too fat, he couldn't [G]court her
Now she wears a girdle round her
Tennessee bor[C]der[G][C]
One [F]night I took her out,
[C]just across the line
She [D]stumped her toe and fell
in a [G]bale of turd [C]and tine
Hey,
Earlies
Yeah,
Red
What in the world ever happened
[G]to that old man's daughter?
Well, the last time I saw her,
Red, she was headed for
[C]The
[D]Tenness[G] ee
[C]Pardons!
