[G]Oh Mommy [C]I ain’t no [G]commie
I’m just [G]doin’ all I can to do the g[A]ood old American w[D]ay
It s[C]ays right there in the Constitution
It’s [G]really A-OK to have a [E7]revolution
When the l[A]eaders that you choose
[D]Really don’t fit the shoes

[G]Oh mister [C]I ain’t no [G]sister
I b[G]elieve in the Bill of Rights
[A]C’mon don’t you start a fight p[D]lease
I l[C]ike to wear my hair long; c[G]an there be anything w[E7]rong
When you’ve [A]already accused me twice
Of l[D]ookin’ like Jesus Christ, hallelujah

{section: Instrumental}
[G]   [C(4)] [G]    [E7]    [A]    [D]

I’m [C]only getting’ tired of playin’ Punch & Judy
I’ve r[G]eally half a mind to go and [E7]do my duty
Like [A]Mr. Patrick Henry said
I g[D]ot to be free or dead

[G]Mr. Nixon [C]I ain’t a-f[G]ixin’
To s[G]peak Spanish on a plane or p[A]olish off the Liberty B[D]ell
I [C]just wanna sit here on the shelf
And [G]watch you finish things off [E7]by yourself
[A]Please let me do what I wanna
I’ll just l[D]ay around the house and smoke marijuana – ooohhh

{section: Instrumental}
[G]   [C(4)] [G]    [E7]    [A]    [D]

It [C]says right there in the Constitution
It’s [G]really A-OK to have a [E7]revolution
When the l[A]eaders that you made
J[D]ust don’t make the grade

[G]Oh [E7]mommy [C]I ain’t no [A7]commie
Well I [C]hate to bust your bubble
Cause there’s [D]gonna be some trouble
[G] S[C]o[D]o[G]n [C]  [G]
