Kunci: A major
Verse 1
G
Well, there once was a tall man,
his brother Jack,
Ramped along the railroad track.
Jack says, Tom, I've got a sweet song,
For a girl with a pretty name.
C
D
G
Let's find a little town and the rest,
C
G
Find a crazy school and get
a good breakfast.
D
Em
Maybe I'll find me a pretty waitress,
C
G
And do some serenading.
And Tom says, brother,
you're a quarter -weight cock
You couldn't sing a car,
forget about jazz, it ain't locked
Ain't no trouble in this world
unless a man goes a -lookin'
And best keep your britches on
D
G
Besides, I already found us an ocean
C
We'll take the tracks till we
D
Em
Far away from this locomotion
C
G
In some harbor town
C
G
What a man's gotta do to survive
D
Em
Oh, honey girl, don't let me down
C
G
I'll be looking for you all around
Brother Tom, I didn't make you no boss
And Daddy knocked you
down at the first sight
Of course, you better think a while
Before you try and make the rules
Or trouble will find you
D
But a pretty little thing could
C
G
Maybe the next time, maybe you'll see
D
Well, I'll sing her my song
Tossed by opposite pub,
let your brain catch up
You're a poor man with a hearty,
but I couldn't corrupt
How you gonna make a
bride without no work?
You couldn't get along without me
D
But right now I've got you
C
G
Brothers, they don't do that
D
G
Oh lordy my, oh lordy my
C
G
What a man's gotta do to survive
D
Em
Oh honey girl, don't let me down
C
G
I'll be looking for you all around
Jack thought, it ain't right man,
it ain't fair
We ramble till we smell the soft air
He said, I'm going to find a work
that sun shines in the morning
And quit these wary ways
D
Well, Jack, you can settle for
Women, while you're
C
G
working for a mortgage,
I'll be swimming
Em
and the sunlight glimmering
C
D
C
G
D
G
Cause I'll be a free man
Well, the wind got strong
as they moved along
Man, Tom got the figure maybe
he was all wrong
He said, I've been dog
-lonesome for so many years
I don't want you to end up like me
D
G
I ain't sayin' that you're all wrong,
brother
C
But sometimes you gotta give
C
G
Somewhere along the way
C
G
What a man's gotta do to survive
D
Em
Oh, honey girl, don't let me down
C
G
I'll be looking for you all around
Splitting up was what they did that night
Was no more fuss and no more fight
Jack cried a tear but he said I'll be alright
As he mistled down near the pine
Em
for his union with the clay
C
G
Hoping first to find some happiness
D
Well, there ain't no life
C
And it's hard to find something
G
that you can't move along
Em
and there ain't nobody wrong
C
G
Brothers like Jack and Lonesome Tom
C
G
What a man's gotta do to survive
D
Em
Oh, honey girl, don't let me down
C
G
I'll be looking for you all around
D
G
Oh lordy my, oh lordy my
C
G
What a man's gotta do to survive
D
Em
Oh honey girl don't let me down
C
G
C
G
I'll be looking for you all around
