Intro:

C

Chorus:

C
I've been around in Donkey Town
         C
Too long, Baby, too long
C
Checking out of Donkey Town
   C
So long, so long, so long.


C
Her pretty eyes are pretty still
    C
But Jim's got a quite of a squint, yeah

I dug my last check from out of the mine
      F
Now I feel like I've done my stint.
    C
Jim got an army pension
        C
When he walked from the military court
C
Nobody ever mentions the medical report.



C
She does little things for me
    C
She likes to get the both of us high, yeah

She says I am a tender-hearted man
      F
Prince Charming, yeah, sure, I'm the guy.
   C
He likes the wrecker's dogs on chains
       C
And the smoke from the company fires
C
Diesel oil in the trucks and cranes
        C
And the smell of burning tires.

C
I've been around in Donkey Town
         C
Too long, Baby, too long
C
Checking out of Donkey Town
   C
So long, so long, so long.

C
There's a purple heart in a silver tin
      C
And a grey .45 in a draw, yeah

Most of the time you can drink with him
        F
But some other time he's just sore.
   C
On days when she says she can't think straight
   C
Or feels like she's getting the jumps
C
She'll go shoot off her .38
   C
At cans at a Donkey Town dump.


C
It was Friday late and she crossed those legs
   C
She told me flat out, she would, yeah

If I could pull up my trailer legs
        F
We could get away together for good.
  C
I sure wish her the best of luck
              C
She's going to need it, thinking of Jim
C
I don't like to leave her stuck
          C
But she's near as bad as him.


C
I've been around in Donkey Town
         C
Too long, Baby, too long
C
Checking out of Donkey Town
   C
