Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
On top of [D]old [G]Smokey
All [Bb]covered [D]with snow
I lost my true [A]lover[Am]
For [A]a courting to slow
[D]

[Verse 2]
[G]Yes courting's a pleasure
[D]And parting is grief
And a false [A]hearted lov[Am]er[A][Am]
[A]Is worse than [D]a thief

[Verse 3]
[D]
She'll kiss [G]you, she'll hug you
[D]And tell you more lies
Than the cross ties on [A]a railr[Am]oad[A][Am]
Or [A]the stars [D]in the sky

[Verse 4]
[D]
Let me tell you 'bout [G]my [D]baby[G]
She's like [D]bad brandy wine
The first time [Am]I kissed he[A]r
She drove me out [D]my mind

[Verse 5]
[D]
She's a Bal[G]timore special
Got [D]a fine brown frame
When you see her in mo[A]tion
Evil woman is [D]her name
[G]

[Verse 6]
[D]
Did I tell you 'bout the [G]Eastman
Lord what [D]a shame
He run off with my [A]baby
And scandalized my [D]name

[Verse 7]
[D]
Well I went [A]up on a [G]mountain top
To call my baby [D]back
She was gone with [A]that Eastman
Down that lonesome rail[D]road track

[Verse 8]
[D]
If I ever [G]see that Eastman
I'll shoot him with my [D]gun
I'll cut him with my [A]long [D]Jones
An[A]d dare that pimp to r[D]un

[Verse 9]
[D]
Little Liza, little [G]Liza[D][G]
I [D]couldn't sleep last [A]night[D]
Come on back home [A]baby
Everything will be all [D]right

[Verse 10]
[D]
Let me tell you, let me [G]tell you
I don't care [D]what you say
If my woman ever [Am]comes [A]back
I'll give my [D]life away

[Verse 11]
[D]
If you ever see a [G]dark cloud
[D]A- [G]rol[D]lin' in the sky
It's my woman gone [Am]to he[A]aven
With a tear drop in [D]her eye

[Verse 12]
[D]
On top of old [G]Smokey
All covered with [D]snow
I lost my [A]true [Am]lov e[A]r[Am]
For [A]a- courting to slow

[Outro 1]
[D]
