Intro:
C F G C
Chorus:
C
I've been around in Donkey Town
F C
Too long, Baby, too long
F C
Checking out of Donkey Town
G C
So long, so long, so long.
C
Her pretty eyes are pretty still
F C
But Jim's got a quite of a squint, yeah
I dug my last check from out of the mine
Am F
Now I feel like I've done my stint.
C
Jim got an army pension
F C
When he walked from the military court
F C G C
Nobody ever mentions the medical report.
C
She does little things for me
F C
She likes to get the both of us high, yeah
She says I am a tender-hearted man
Am F
Prince Charming, yeah, sure, I'm the guy.
C
He likes the wrecker's dogs on chains
F C
And the smoke from the company fires
F C
Diesel oil in the trucks and cranes
G C
And the smell of burning tires.
C
I've been around in Donkey Town
F C
Too long, Baby, too long
F C
Checking out of Donkey Town
G C
So long, so long, so long.
C
There's a purple heart in a silver tin
F C
And a grey .45 in a draw, yeah
Most of the time you can drink with him
Am F
But some other time he's just sore.
C
On days when she says she can't think straight
F C
Or feels like she's getting the jumps
F C
She'll go shoot off her .38
G C
At cans at a Donkey Town dump.
C
It was Friday late and she crossed those legs
F C
She told me flat out, she would, yeah
If I could pull up my trailer legs
Am F
We could get away together for good.
C
I sure wish her the best of luck
F C
She's going to need it, thinking of Jim
F C
I don't like to leave her stuck
G C
But she's near as bad as him.
C
I've been around in Donkey Town
F C
Too long, Baby, too long
F C
Checking out of Donkey Town
G C
So long, so long, so long.
