Big Bend Gal by Shelor Family
Big Bend Gal
[Verse 1]
C G C F C G C
There's no use talkin' bout the Big Bend Gal that lives on the county line
C G C F C G C
For Betsy Jane from the prairie plain just leaves them way behind.
C F C G
You never would see such a likely woman if you searched all over creation.
C G C F C G C
She beats the gals from the flat creek bottom. She's the queen of the whole plantation.
[Verse 2]
C G C F C G C
She totes herself like a flying squirrel and the men folk all come around.
C G C F C G C
And lord how the dewdrops get off the grass when she puts her feet upon the ground.
C F C G
She's just as ripe as an apple on a tree, and she looks so pretty and snug;
C G C F C G C
And her mouth's just as sweet as a corncob stopper that comes out of a molasses jug.
[Verse 3]
C G C F C G C
The calf comes a-loping when the old cow calls and the possum dog comes to the horn.
C G C F C G C
And the grape vine climbs up the tall oak tree and the morning glory wraps around the corn.
C F C G
And a feller will turn around and come pretty quick when he hears that pretty girl laugh;
C G C F C G C
She hangs on his arm like a bird on a tree as they both go walking up the path.
[Verse 4]
C G C F C G C
Her eyes give light like a foxfire chunk and her teeth are white as snow;
C G C F C G C
and the fellers in the cotton patch keep looking back when they see her come chopping down the row.
C F C G
She's gone crowd the hands where the crabgrass grows and killed the weeds as she goes;
C G C F C G C
She skippers up the furrow in a cloud of dust and she busts them clods with a hoe.
