Allegheny

G
How she got that junk car runnin' guess I'll never know
     C                                           G
It never ran but once and set two winters in the snow
                      C                                      G
Well imagine runnin' out on me as I lay sound asleep Allegheny
Eb                                                       D
My big mistake was thinkin' she was something I could keep
      C                                                  G
You stole my winter's food supply and something else I fear
     C                                         G
My savin's in the mattress have strangely disappeared
                       C                                           G
Now those who know me best knows he who robs me best beware Allegheny
Eb                                                                       D
I'm gonna call up the dogs and hunt you down drag you back here by the hair

     C
Oh Allegheny something tells me you're dissatisfied
                                                  G
Well could be because I've been your mail-order bride
                                                     C
There's a half of you that's French yeah and I can crave a better style
                                                             G
And a half of you is Cherokee yeah and I've gone wild Allegheny

Eb                                                    D
She's got a head start on me as a crow flies half a day
      C                                              G
And unless I miss my guess she'll stop to rest in Monterey
                              C                                      G
But if I take the Knoxville Highway thirteen hours it will be Allegheny
Eb                                                                D
Well she forgot I knew the shortcut I'll be there in less than three

     C

     C                                              G
I signaled for the dogs to wait outside the hotel door
                                      C                    G
I described her to the desk clerk he said try the second floor
But he mentioned she's got company
                       C                 G
And that marks the stranger's doom Allegheny
Eb                                                              D
I wish I was her so I could see my face when I bust into the room

     C
