[Intro]
Am G C
Am G C
Am G C
[Verse 1]
C
Concerning the girls in California
G C
Boys beware let me warn you
C
They’re not afraid to proper scorn you
C
They made me feel blue
G
I had a big black beauty in Pensacola
F C
Who hugged me like a boa constrictor
F C
She’d make a promise and not deliver
G
She never once pulled through
[Chorus 1]
F G
Fire and brimstone raining down
C F
I’m a hell of a fighter pound for pound
C G
Can’t you feel my wishing a washing
F G
The owl’s making sure that it comes undone
C F
If you’re not gonna scrap you better run
C G
Henny Penny can’t you see the sky’s a falling
[Instrumental]
Am G C

[Verse 2]
C
I gotta hit the road and you know what for
G C
I make my living as a troubadour
C
You make yours as a pretty little whore
C
But I love you just the same
G
I don’t know why they’re being mean to me
F C
I haven’t been nothing but peaches and cream
F C
When they all fell out I picked up the steam
G
But I’m too old to play that game
[Chorus 2]
F G
I turned 21 picking on the big grand stand
C F
Drunker than Indian robbed of his land
C G
Oh my brother there’s no use balling
F G
The owl’s making sure that it comes undone
C F
If you’re not gonna scrap you better run
C G
Henny Penny can’t you see the sky’s a falling
[Instrumental]
Am G C
Am G C
Am G C
[Chorus 3]
F G
Fire and brimstone raining down
C F
I’m a hell of a fighter pound for pound
C G
Can’t you feel my wishing a washing
F G
The owl’s making sure that it comes undone
C F
If you’re not gonna scrap you better run
C G
Henny Penny can’t you see the sky’s a falling
[Outro]
Am G C
