INTRO:
A
CHORUS:
D7
Call up Trudy on the telephone
A7
Send a letter in the mail
E7
Tell her I'm hung up in Dallas
A7
And they won't let me outta this jail
D7
And if she asks you how I'm faring
A7
Tell her I'm just about to lose my mind
E7
Worried about old Johnny Lee Walker
A7 A ↓
And the girl I left behind
VERSE:
D7
Now Johnny Lee Walker was a card mechanic
A7
Had a hand for trouble and an eye for cash
E7
Luckiest man in Dallas County
A7
He had a gold watch chain and a black moustache
D7
And he loved his whiskey and he loved his women
A7
Drove a big long Cadillac limousine
E7
Kept a big fine fancy townhouse in Dallas
A7
And a hotel suite in New Orleans
D7
Carried a switchblade knife in his left hip pocket
A7
And a 44 hog leg up under his coat
E7
Cut you down in a New York minute
A7 A ↓
If he catch you cheating that was all she wrote
CHORUS:
D7
Call up Trudy on the telephone
A7
Send a letter in the mail
E7
Tell her I'm hung up in Dallas
A7
And they won't let me outta this jail
D7
And if she asks you how I'm faring
A7
Tell her I'm just about to lose my mind
E7
Worried about old Johnny Lee Walker
A7 A ↓
And the girl I left behind
VERSE: (Bass)
D7
I just got to town last Friday evening
A7
Sure as hell didn't mean to stay
E7
I was on my way back to Louisiana
A7
Had a powerful thirst and six months pay
(+ Guitar)
D7
I met a peroxide blonde in a bar on D-ville
A7
I was flying high and feeling mean
E7
Poured down a bottle and a half of red eye
A7
I dropped 35 dollars in the slot machine
(+ Piano)
D7
And the boys in the back was dealing seven card
A7
I set down and won me a hundred and ten
E7
I was raking in chips like Grant took Richmond
A7
Till big Johnny Lee come a strolling in
D7
He ripped off the table like a 707
A7
Pretty soon he done won all of my bread
E7
I accused him of cheating he reached for a pistol
A7
I grabbed a chair and went upside of his head
D7
Then I took off a running like a motorcycle
A7
Heard the bullets whining and sirens wail
E7
But it took half the cops in Dallas County
A7 A ↓
Just to put one coon ass boy in jail
CHORUS:
D7
Call up Trudy on the telephone
A7
Send a letter in the mail
E7
Tell her I'm hung up in Dallas
A7
And they won't let me outta this jail
D7
And if she asks you how I'm faring
A7
Tell her I'm just about to lose my mind
E7
Worried about old Johnny Lee Walker
A7
And the girl I left behind (Repeat final chorus and then fade out)
