I guess you know Jethro went crazy
D7
G
We’ve all been crazy sometimes
C
G

They fixed up his lungs and his fever
A7
D7
But they could not fix up his mind
G
D7
G
He married a beautiful redhead
G7

Of women they say she’s a pearl
G
Em
She gave her heart to Jethro
G
D7

And her body to the whole damned world
D7

Well Jethro had someone to talk to
D7

They were monsters and little green men
C
G
Em
He never talked to his woman
A7

Now he spent all his time with his friends

In the evenings she’d drive off and leave him
G7

She tossed back her long pretty curls
G
Em
She gave her heart to Jethro

And her body to the whole damned world
D7

Some friends came and begged her to leave him

Now some of her lovers were strangers

And her body to the whole damned world
D7

I know some will condemn me for writin’

This song of a man and his wife
C

Em
A man’s not writin’ if he can’t relate
A7
D7
All the things that he sees in his life
G
D7
G
I know some will condemn me for cursin’
G7
C
But much can be said for this girl
G
Em
Who gave her heart to ol’ Jethro
G
D7

And her body to the whole damned world
