me upon my pony on my boat

Csus2 G/B G6 Csus2 G/B G6
Now the mystery masked man was smarter, he got himself a Tonto

Csus2 Em7 Dsus2/F#
'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free

Csus2 G/B G6 Csus2 G/B G6
But Tonto he was smarter, and one day said Kemosabe,

Csus2 Em7 Dsus2/F# G6
"Kiss my ass, I bought a boat, I'm going out to sea"

Chorus

Now if I were Roy Rogers, I'd sure enough be single,
Couldn't bring myself to marryin' no Dale,
Well it'd just be me and Trigger, we'd go riding through them movies,
And we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'd sail.

Chorus

Now if I were like lightning, I wouldn't need no sneakers,
Well I'd come and go whenever I did please,
And I'd scare 'em by the shade tree, and I'd scare 'em by the light pole,
But I would not scare my pony on my boat out on the sea.

Chorus
