Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D]
[G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
I'm [D]calling from the station and
I [G]haven't got much time to let you [D]know
Got a ticket for Missouri and there's
[G]things I need to say before [A]I go
If I [G]could I'd have you meet
me but I don't [D]see how I can
I don't have enough
to pay your [G]fare

[Verse 2]
There's [G]a factory in Columbus
hirin' [D]now I understand
And they're [G]looking for
an [A]able bodied [D]man
Baby you should get some money in the
[G]letter that I mailed two days [D]ago
But when I wrote the letter saying [G]you
could come to me I didn't [A]know
That I was [G]goin' to lose my
job in [D]such a [A]little [D]while

[Verse 3]
[D]Now I guess we'll have
to change our [G]plan
They may not hire me in Columbus
[D]but I'm pretty sure they will
Cause they're [G]looking
for an [A]able bodied [D]man

[Verse 4]
If [D]I had more education now I'd a'
[G]made a better life for me and [D]you
But just simple manual labor is the [G]only
kind of work that I can [A]do
The bus is [G]loadin' for Missouri
so I [D]guess I'd better go

[Verse 5]
Hon I'll [D]call you up as soon as I [G]can
I'll be sending you a ticket
cause I [D]know I'll get a job
If they're [G]looking for an [A]able bodied [D]man
I'll be [G]sending you a ticket
cause I [D]know I'll get a job
And [G]remember I'm your [A]able bodied [D]man[A]
