[Prelude - spoken by Jeff Hanna]
(Riff 1) They used to be this ol' guy named Woody, and Woody was an Indian -- came
from a town in Oklahoma called, "Bowlegs."
(Riff 1) And he used to have this saying. He used to say when things got real
lousy...
(Riff 2) I mean real lousy.
D A
(Riff 3) All you hadda do was just put out the fire, an' call in the dogs, an'
G D
head it on back to Bowlegs. An' that's what this tune's about, headin' on back.
[Verse 1]
|D .. (Riff 1)|D |G D |
Sometimes things don't work out, but that's how life is, son
|D |E A
All them little miseries can keep you on the run
|D D7 |G E
Some morning you may wake up with your face down in the eggs
|D A |G D |
So just put out the fire, call in the dogs, an' head it on back to Bowlegs
|D A |G* |D
Put out the fire, call in the dogs, an' head it on back to Bowlegs ..
[Verse 2]
|D |G D |
Well, Lots o' people in this world are tryin' to make a buck
|D |E A |
Some folks ride in limousines while others drive them big ol' Peterbilt trucks
|D D7 |G E |
Just remember that ol' saying 'bout the round holes in square pegs
|D A |G D |
An' just put out the fire, call in the dogs, an' head it on back to Bowlegs
|D A |G* |D |
Put out the fire, call in the dogs, an' head it on back to Bowlegs
| D | G D | D | A* |D ... (d)(c#)(b) |
[Bridge]
|A |D (d)(c#)(b) |
. There's no use tryin' to be what you're not ...
|A |D (d)(e)(f#) |
. You run on a treadmill and you'll get tired a lot ..
|G |D A Bm F#m |
. So, why not take some advice from me?
|G A |D* |A
. Even though I ain't no McCartney
[Verse 3]
|D |G D |
Well, the moral of this story escapes me at this time
|D |E A
I've been too busy sittin' here just tryin' to make it rhyme
|D D7 |G E
I'm a crazy drunken fool, and when I finish off this keg
|D A |G D |
I'm gonna piss on the fire, call in the dogs, an' head it on back to Bowlegs
|D A |G D |
Piss on the fire, call in the dogs, an' head it on back to Bowlegs
|D A |G D |
I'll just piss on the fire, call in the dogs, an' head it on back to Bowlegs
|D A |G D |
Mmm-mmm-m-mmm, mmm-mmm-m-mmm, mmm-mmm-m-mmm mmm
[Outro]
Jeff Hanna: Well, right now, we're gonna do a little headin' on back ourselves.
Head on down to the local waterin' hole an' take advantage of that "Happy Hour."
Voice 2: We gonna go to the Jerome?
Jeff: Go to the Jerome, man!
Voice 2: All right.
Jeff: They got a beer down there with my name on it.
Voice 2: They got a beer called "Jeff?"
Jeff: I'd like a beer. You like a beer?
Voice 2: Yeah, let's... let's go get one. I... I could... I'm awful dry.
(SFX: Beer can opens)
Jeff: All right. Yeah.
Voice 2: Where is my... (fades)
