Lyrics & chords
[Verse 1] Ah, this? about two [D]cats, they?re sitting? down by a river in the swimps. (and) They?re sittin? there on a log. This one of ?em is a [E]kind of a big fella and [D](the) other?n is a little bit smaller and he?s got a long ?billed cap. And they? sitting there pondering on what they? gonna do for the night. And anything the big-guy says (to him) the little guy is for; ?cause he digs, and he? ( ), ?cool.? So it?s called, [F]?Roosevelt & Ir[D]a Lee? [Verse 2] [D] The river was dark and muddy, And the moon was on the rise. And all of the creatures in the swamp-land Had Had woke up to feed [Verse 3] for the night. [D]Roosevelt and Ira Lee (huh!) were sittin? there on a log, And Ira Lee turned to Roosevelt and said, ?I?d sure like to [G]have-a me me [F]some [D]BULLFROG(s).? [Verse 4] He said, ?Yeah. [F]YEAH![G] Lord.(!) Sure would taste [D]good!? [Verse 5] [D] So they slipped on their rubber boots, [G]And[D] walked down to the water?s edge. And right away they knew the night would be a bummer, [G]?cause Ira[D] Lee stepped on a Water Mocc-sin head. [Verse 6] He [D]said, [F]?uu[G]hOh, -uuOH! LORD! Somebody [D]help me!? (heh-heh-heh.) (HARMONICA) [Verse 7] Ira Lee turned to [D]Roosevelt (when he quit his screaming and kickin?) And he said, ?Let?s forget about the Bullfrog Legs, and go out and steal some [F]chickens.? [Verse 8] Ol? Roosevelt said, like [D]this now, ?Yeah. [F]Yeah! [G]OO-oo-oui! Sure Sure Sure would taste [D]good!... ?Yes it would. (I love my chicken.)? [Verse 9] Oh, [D]the river was dark and muddy? [Outro 1] [D]
