Don't like living in a dirty town
'Cause a dirty town gets me down
I saved up and I bought some land
'Cause I can't stand living in a dirty town
Yeah, I pinched my pennies and I put 'em down
And I washed my hands of a dirty town
Plant my [A]seeds in the ground
Yeah, I put 'em [A]down in my [A]new found land
'Cause you [A7can't plant seeds in a dirty town
No, you [A7can't plant seeds in a dirty town
I choppin' firewood, choppin' firewood
Chop chop chop
Just like [F]a countɾy boy should be [Am]chopping wood
I countɾy
My kindling sticks are the perfect little width
Kindling sticks
Get gone from a dirty town
Everybody now, get gone from a dirty town
Ah ah ah, all [Em]I need is a chicken wire and [Bm]a chicken feed
And, a ah ah ah, all [Em]I see is a new found land [Bm]fertility, yeah
My lady friend, oh, she don't need to [C7]pretend
She countɾy
She cracks the crack on [C7]dawn with her crackin' whip
Crackity
We having fun just makin' little chillun
Ch chillun
Get gone from a dirty town
My government, no, he ain't made of cement
He countɾy
We get along [Am]singing good ol' countɾy songs
Ol' Guthrie
My bank account is a shoe box in the ground
And empty
Get gone from a dirty town
