Elma Turl
(Mike Cross)
[C]Elma Turl is a beautiful girl, and I'd [F]love to have her for my [C]wife,
[C]She's just the kind of woman who could make me [D7]happy for the rest of my [G7]life
But my [C]daddy said, "Son, there's something you don't know, and it's
[F]something I think you [C]oughter
[F]Elma Turl is a [C]beautiful girl; but [G7]son, she's my [C]daughter."
[C]Alice Green is a beautiful thing, and [F]I'd love to have her for my [C]wife,
[C]She's just the kind of woman who could make me [D7]happy for the rest of my [G7]life
[C]My daddy said, "Son, there's something you don't know, and it's [F]something I
think you [C]oughter
[F]Alice Green is a [C]beautiful thing; but [G7]son, she's my [C]daughter."
Well, I've [C]been all around the whole durn county, like a [F]buck huntin' for a [C]doe,
But it [C]seems every girl I'd like to marry is a [D7]wild oat Daddy [G7]sowed
So I [C]went to my mama with my head hung down, and she [F]asked me what the matter could be,
I [F]told her my problem and she [C]took my hand and said, [G7]"Son, now listen to [C]me."
"You see, [C]your daddy was such a good-lookin' young man, and like an [F]eager
young stallion [C]horse
His [C]blood ran hot, so you can't blame him for lettin' [D7]Mother Nature take her [G7]course
But you [C]got no reason to be upset; don't you [F]worry, don't fret, don't [C]bother
You see, [F]your daddy ain't your daddy, he only [C]thinks he is; so you can
[G7]marry whoever you [C]wanter.
