Don't Take Your Guns To TownWords and music by Johnny Cash

Repeat Chorus:

D7 GHe sang a song as on he rode his guns hung at his hips D7 GHe rode into a cattle town a smile upon his lips CHe stopped and walked into a bar and laid his money down GBut his mother's words echoed again

Repeat Chorus:

D7 GHe drank his first strong liquor then to calm his shaking hand D7 GAnd tried to tell himself at last he had become a man CA dusty cowpoke at his side began to laugh him down GAnd he heard again his mother's words

Repeat Chorus

D7 GBill was raged and Billy Joe reached for his gun to draw D7 GBut the stranger drew his gun and fired before he even saw CAs Billy Joe fell to the floor the crowd all gathered around GAnd wondered at his final words

[C] There is a rose in Spanish Harlem, [C] A red rose up in Spanish Harlem.

[F] It is a special one, it's never seen the sun, [F] It only comes out when the moon is on the run, And all the stars are [C] gleaming.

[G] It's growing in the street, [G] Right up through the concrete But soft and sweet and [C] dreaming.

[C] There is a rose in Spanish Harlem, a red rose up in Spanish Harlem, [F] With eyes as black as coal, that look down in my soul, And start a fire there, and then I lose control, I have to beg your[C] pardon.

[G] I'm gonna pick that rose and watch her as she grows - in my [C] garden.

The Battle of Kookamonga Written by Jimmy Driftwood – Performed by Homer and Jethro [G] In Nineteen and fifty nine we [C] took a little hike, With [D7] our scoutmaster up to [G] lake Aneekanike, We took a little pizza and we [C] took some sour krauts, And [D7] we marched along together till we [G] heard the girl scouts

Chorus 1: We're the boys from camp Kookamonga, Our mothers sent us here for to [D7] study natures [G] ways, We learned to make sparks by rubbin' sticks together, But if we catch the girls we'll [D7] set the woods [G] ablaze.

Well we crept up to the water and we [C] see'd the girls aswimin', There [D7] must of been a hundred of them [G] pretty young women, They looked so fine even [C] birds forgot to sing, We [D7] laid down in the poison oak and [G] didn't say a thing.

Repeat Chorus 1: Well our councilor said we could [C] take em by surprise If we [D7] didn't say a word till we [G] looked em in the eyes, We kept real still and we [C] kept our eyes aglued, We [D7] saw how they were dressed, they were [G] smimming in the… well now

Repeat Chorus 1:

Chorus 2: Well they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles And they ran through the bushes where the [D7] rabbit couldn't [G] go. They ran so fast even we couldn't catch em From Lake Aneekanike [D7] all the way to Buff[G]-alo.

Well we ran right after them till [C] everyone was pooped, so we [D7] rested for a minute and our [G] forces we regrouped Then we saw the girls [C] behind some evergreens, [D7] captured by a company of [G] United States Marines

Repeat Chorus 1: Repeat Chorus 2:

(in cadence) Rutty toot toot, rooty toot toot, we are the boys from the boy scout troop, We do smoke and we don't chew and we don't go with the girls that do.
