Oh I’m gonna leave this country

               G7          C
Lord I’m going around this world

       F                C
Oh I’m gonna leave this country
 
                G7         C
For the sake of one little girl 


                           
Oh I ain't gonna work tomorrow
 
              G7        C
I ain't gonna work this day
 
       F                C
Lord I ain't gonna work tomorrow
 
              G7      C
For it may be a rainy day

 

Don’t you hear my banjo ringing

                    G7       C
Don’t you hear that mournful sound

      F                           C
Don’t you hear those pretty girls laughing

                 G7        C
Standing on that cold cold ground



Oh I ain't gonna work tomorrow 

              G7        C
I ain't gonna work this day
 
       F                C
Lord I ain't gonna work tomorrow
 
              G7      C
For it may be a rainy day



Oh I’ll hang my head in sorrow

                G7       C
Oh I’ll hang my head and cry

   F                    C
Oh I’ll hang my head in sorrow

              G7     C
As my darling passes by



Oh I ain't gonna work tomorrow 

              G7        C
I ain't gonna work this day
 
       F                C
Lord I ain't gonna work tomorrow 

              G7      C
For it may be a rainy day



Oh I ain't gonna work tomorrow
 
              G7        C
I ain't gonna work this day
 
       F                C
Lord I ain't gonna work tomorrow 

              G7      C
For it may be a rainy day
