"Dakota"
Mason Jennings
The Flood
Into: G7  
G7I sorta met Dakota
Introduced by Minnesota
I just smCiled
G7She was six feet tall
Said she hated these walls
Stepped outside for airC  
G7She wore a plain green dress
Said it was cold and it was best
She shouCld be running
G7She kissed my ear and said, "My dear
Come see me soon
Naked I am stunning"C  
G"When you do come
Bring your six-gunsC  
Keep them loaded"D  
Said DakCotaG  
G"And when you do come
Bring your six-guCns
And keep them loaded"D  
Said DakotaC  G  
I said one G7of these daysEm  
I said one oG7f these daysEm  
I said one oG7f these daysEm  
I will comDe
She had something, oh my my
Make me jump high in the sky
I swear
She had something, yipee-kay-yay
Meaner than a dog that has no... hey!
She had something that made me sore
I did one who much much more than good luck
You can go and mark my words
Dakota drove a big black Ford pickup truck
"And when you do come
Bring your six-guns
Keep them loaded"
Said Dakota
"And when you do come
Bring your six-guns
Keep them loaded"
Said Dakota
I said one of these days
One of these days
One of these days
I will come, come

"Dakota"

Mason Jennings

The Flood

Into:

I sorta met Dakota

Introduced by Minnesota

I just smiled

She was six feet tall

Said she hated these walls

Stepped outside for air

She wore a plain green dress

Said it was cold and it was best

She should be running

She kissed my ear and said, "My dear

Come see me soon

Naked I am stunning"

"When you do come

Bring your six-guns

Keep them loaded"

C G

Said Dakota

"And when you do come

Bring your six-guns

And keep them loaded"

C G

Said Dakota

G7 Em

I said one of these days

G7 Em

I said one of these days

G7 Em

I said one of these days

I will come

She had something, oh my my

Make me jump high in the sky

I swear

She had something, yipee-kay-yay

Meaner than a dog that has no... hey!

She had something that made me sore

I did one who much much more than good luck

You can go and mark my words

Dakota drove a big black Ford pickup truck

"And when you do come

Bring your six-guns

Keep them loaded"

Said Dakota

"And when you do come

Bring your six-guns

Keep them loaded"

Said Dakota

I said one of these days

One of these days

I will come, come
