[Am6]I'm gonna pull this [Am7]timber `fore the [Am6]sun go d[Am7]own

[C]Get it `cross the river `fore the [Am6]bars come [Am7]down

[Am6]Drag it on [Am7]down that [Am6]dusty [Am7]road

[D]Come on Jerry, let's [C]dump this [A]load

I[A] said "Timber, ho!", timber, [C]woah this timber's gotta [D]rol[C]l

I said "[A]Timber, ho!", timber, [C]woah this timber's gotta [D]rol[C]l

(alt. chords)

[Am6]My old [Am7]Jerry was an [Am6]Arkansas [Am7]mule

[D]Been everywhere and he [C]ain't no [A]fool

[Am6]Weighed nine [Am7]hundred and [Am6]twenty-[Am7]two

[D]Done everything a poor [C]mule can [A]do

(chorus)

Jerry's shoulders stood six foot tall
Pulled more timber than a freight could haul
Workin' heavy old Jerry got sore
Pulled so much he couldn't pull no more

(chorus)

The boss said "Jerry" and it made him jump
Jerry ran and kicked the boss's rump
My old Jerry was a cool mule
It been me I would kill that fool
Boss tried to shoot old Jerry's head
Jerry took the bullet and stomped him dead
Stomped the boss til he heard him scream
Sure don't care he was so damn mean

(chorus 2x)
