country bumpkin - cal smith lyrics

Loading...

he walked up to the bar and parked his lanky frame upon a tall bar stool,
and with a long soft southern drawl said,
i’ll just have a gl-ss of anything that’s cool;
a barroom girl with hard and knowing eyes slowly looked him up and down,
and she thought i wonder how on earth
that country b-mpkin found his way to town.

she said. “h-llo country b-mpkin, how’s the frost down on the pumpkin?
i’ve seen some sights, but man you’re somethin’,
where’d you come from country b-mpkin?”

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 marvelled at the soft and warm,
and cuddly boy child feeding at her breast.

and she said,”h-llo country b-mpkin,
fresh as frost down on the pumpkin;
i’ve seen some sights, but babe you’re somethin’,
mama loves her country b-mpkin”

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 death-bed 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 b-mpkin
the frost is gone now from the pumpkin;
i’ve seen some sights and life’s been somethin’
see you later country b-mpkin.
