Country Bumpkin

He walked up to the bar and parked his

Lanky frame upon a tall barstool

And with a long soft southern drawl said

I’ll just have a glass of anything that’s cool

Slowly looked him up and down

And she thought I wonder how on earth

That country bumpkin found his way to town

And she said hello country bumpkin

How’s the frost out on the pumpkin

I’ve seen some sights but man you’re something

Where’d you come from country bumpkin

Of joy-filled tears yet death-like pain

Into this wondrous world of many wonders

One more wonder came

In a raptured look of love and tenderness

As she marveled at the soft and warm

And cuddly boy child feeding at her breast

And she said hello country bumpkin

Fresh as frost out on the pumpkin

I’ve seen some sights but babe you’re something

Mama loves her country bumpkin

In a simple quiet and peaceful country place

The heavy hand of time had not erased

The raptured wonder from the woman’s face

Knowing fully well her race was nearly run

But she softly smiled and looked into

The sad eyes of her husband and her son

And she said so long country bumpkin

The frost is gone now from the pumpkin

I’ve seen some sights and life’s been something

See you later country bumpkin
