He walked into the bar
And parked his lanky frame
Upon a tall barstool
And with a long soft
Southern drawl said I'll just
Have a glass of anything
That's cool
A bar room girl with hard
And knowing eyes slowly
Looked him up and down
And she thought I wonder
How on earth that country
Bumpkin found his
Way to town
She said hello
Country bumpkin
How's the frost out
On the pumpkin
I've seen some sights
But man you're something
Where'd ya come from
Country bumpkin
It was just a short year later
In a bed of joy-filled tears
Yet death-like pain
Into this wondrous world
Of many wonders
One more wonder came
That same woman's face
Was wrapped up in a
Raptured look of love
And tenderness
As she marveled at the
Soft and warm and cuddly
Boy-child feeding
At her breast
And she said hello
Country bumpkin
Fresh as frost out
On the pumpkin
I've seen some sights
But babe you're something
Mamma loves her
Country bumpkin
Forty years of hard work
Later in a simple quiet
And peaceful country place
The heavy hand of time
Had not erased the
Raptured wonder from
The woman's face
She was lying on her
Deathbed knowing fully
Well her race was nearly run
But she softly smiled
And looked into the sad
Eyes of her husband
And her son
And she said so long
Country bumpkin
The frost is gone now
From the pumpkin
I've seen some sights
And life's been something
See you later
Country bumpkin
She said so long
Country bumpkin
