[Verse 2] (same chords as 1)
Swim across the river
Just to prove that I'm a man
Spend the day bein' lazy
Just bein' nature's friend
[Verse 3]
Climb a long tall hick'ry
Bend it over, skinnin' cats
Playin' baseball with chert rocks
Usin' sawmill slabs for bats
[Bridge] (also a capella, like first chorus, until you reach "'cause that's where..")
A D
Play some [] back-home come-on [] music
A D

Then a drum solo
ensues and the tempo increases--go back to the first chorus for the ending,
but play all of the chords.
