That the last thing I’d see’d be the window bars
A E
Of a (Southern?) American town
E B
If you’d of told me that a year ago in New Orleans
A E
I’d of laughed the cat house down
[Chorus]
A E
Ain’t no musket ball or cannon shot laid my company down
A C#m B E
Mosquito on the lake, (took Indian jade, and the fever’s on my breath tonight?)
[Verse 2]
E B
Well the boys went mango (huntin’?) and they ran through the (lines?)
A E
There in a Costa Rican town
E B
Oh, they must be eatin’ good and they’re drinking fine wine
A E
While I lay my burden down
[Chorus]
A E
Ain’t no musket ball or cannon shot laid my company down
A C#m B E
Mosquitos on the lake, (took Indian jade, and the fever’s on my breath tonight?)
[Instrumental]

Ain’t no musket ball or cannon shot laid my company down

Mosquitos on the lake, (took Indian jade, and the fever’s on my breath tonight?)
