F                       Bb              F  
Workin' on the railroad Sleepin' on the ground
F                       C           F
Eatin' saltine crackers Ten cents a pound

[Chorus]
F                     Bb           F
Big Ball's in Cowtown We'll all go down
F                     C           F             
Big Ball's in Cowtown We'll dance around

(Ehhhh, come in momma, the hog's done got me)

[Verse 2]
F                  Bb          F
I'll go to Cowtown I'll dance around
F                         C            F
Board up your windows The big boy's in town

[Chorus]
F                     Bb           F
Big Ball's in Cowtown We'll all go down
F                     C           F
Big Ball's in Cowtown We'll dance around

[Verse 3]
F                     Bb          F
Put on your new shoes Put on your gown
F                            C             F
Shake off them sad blues The Big Ball's in town

[Chorus]
F                     Bb           F
Big Ball's in Cowtown We'll all go down
F                     C           F
Big Ball's in Cowtown We'll dance around

[Verse 4]
F                       Bb           F
Everybody's smilin' You can't find a frown
F                                 C             F 
The girls are all happy Cause the Big Ball's in town

[Chorus]
F                     Bb           F
Big Ball's in Cowtown We'll all go down
F
Big Ball's in Cowtown

[Outro]
               C         F
Yeah, yeah Big Ball's in town
