Arkansas Line

Arkansas Line    by Elvin Bishop 

D 
Way down in the country          People sure do get funky   
                        A 
Down by the Arkansas Line 


Saturday night a big night of cutting shooting and fist fights  
                        D 
Down by the Arkansas line 

Folks down there really rise the roof  Drinking old grand-dads 100 proof 
                        A 
Down by the Arkansas Line. 

Whiskey flowin just like water  Beer selling for a quarter 
                        D 
Down by the Arkansas Line. 

                      A                                            D 
Down by the Arkansas Line  Saturday night oh boy now ain't that sweet 
                                        A                     D 
Down by the Arkansas Line  won't get me back to Tulsa in 1 piece.   Intermission 
D 
Folk down there drink home made beer  Things ain't changed in a hundred years 
                      A 
Down by the Arkansas Line 

Now I met a woman and she really did thrill me  
                                                                                 D 
But her old man beat me till I begged  him to kill me       Down by the Arkansas Line.  

                        A                                          D 
Down by the Arkansas Line  Saturday night oh boy now ain't that sweet 
                       A                                      D 
Down by the Arkansas Line  won't get me back to Tulsa in 1 piece.
