From: Richard G’s Ukulele Songbook www.scorpexuke.com
As I [C] travel down the back roads
Of this [Am] home I [G] love so [F] much
Every [C] carpenter and [Am] cowboy
Every [Dm] lame man on a [G7] crutch
They're all [F] talking about a [Em] feelin'
'Bout a [F] taste that's in the [G7] air
They're all [F] talking about this [C] mighty [Am] wind
That's [F] blowin' [G7] every[C]where
Chorus: Oh a [Bb] mighty wind’s a [F] blowin' it's [Bb] kickin' up the [F] sand
It's [Am] blowin' out a message to every [D7] woman child and [Bb] man [G7]
Yes a [Bb] mighty wind’s a [F] blowin'
Cross the [C] land and [Em7] cross the [Am] sea [G]
It's [F] blowin' peace and [C] free[Am]dom it's [F] blowin' e[G7]quali[C]ty
From a [C] lighthouse in Barr Harbor
To a [Am] bridge called [G] Golden [F] Gate
From a [C] trawler down in [Am] Shreveport
To the [Dm] shore of one great [G7] lake
There's a [F] star on the hor[Em]izon and it's [F] burning like a [G7] flare
It's [F] lighting up this [C] mighty [Am] wind
That's [F] blowin' [G7] every[C]where
Repeat Chorus
When the [C] blind man sees the picture
When the [Am] deaf man [G] hears the [F] word
When the [C] fisherman stops [Am] fishing
When the [Dm] hunter spares the [G7] herd
We'll still [F] hear the wondrous [Em] story
Of a [F] world where people [G7] care
The [F] story of this [C] mighty [Am] wind that's [F] blowin' [G7] every[C]where
Repeat Chorus
It's [F] blowin' peace and [C] free[Am]dom
It's [F] blowin' [G7] you and [C] me [G] [C]
Back in the USA by Chuck Berry
G C7 G
Oh well, oh well, I feel so good today,
C7 G
We touched ground on an international runway
D7 C7 G
Jet-propelled back home to the USA
New York, Los Angeles
Oh how I yearn for you
Detroit, Chicago, Chattanooga, Baton Rouge
God I long to be back home in old St Lou
Did I miss the skyscrapers
Did I miss the long freeway
From the coast of California
To the shores of the Delaware Bay
You can bet your life I did
Till I got back to the USA
Looking hard for a drive-in
Searching for a corner cafe
Where hamburgers sizzle on an open grill night and day
Yeah, and the jukebox jumping with records back in the USA
I'm so glad I'm living in the USA
Yes I'm so glad I'm living in the USA
Anything you want we got it right here in the USA
Ah we're so glad we're living in the USA
Yes we're so glad we're living in the USA
Anything you want we got it right here in the USA
Ah we're so glad
We're so glad
Ah we're so glad
We're so glad

The baddest man in the whole damn town
B7 C
Badder than old King Kong

Now Leroy he a gambler
A7
And he like his fancy clothes
B7 C
And he like to wave his diamond rings
D7 G
In front of everybody’s nose
G
He got a custom Continental
A7
He got an Eldorado too
B7 C
He got a 32 gun in his pocket for fun
D7 G
He got a razor in his shoe
Chorus
Bad, Bad Leroy Brown Page 2 of 2

Well Friday ‘bout a week ago
A7
Leroy shootin' dice
B7 C
And at the edge of the bar sat a girl named Doris
D7 G
And ooh that girl looked nice
G
Well he cast his eyes upon her
A7
And the trouble soon began
B7 C
Leroy Brown learned a lesson 'bout messin'
D7 G
With the wife of a jealous man
Chorus
G
Well the two men took to fightin'
A7
And when they pulled them from the floor
B7 C
Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle
D7 G
With a couple of pieces gone
Chorus
G B7 C
Yes, you were badder than old King Kong
D7 G
And meaner than a junkyard dog

BALLAD OF DAVY CROCKETT 4/4 1...2...1234
Intro: / / / /
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild fron-tier!
Born on a mountain top in Tennes-see, greenest state in the land of the free
Raised in the woods so he knew every tree, kilt him a bar when he was only three
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild fron-tier! (X2)
Off through the woods he's a-marchin' a-long, makin' up yarns an' singin' a song
Itchin' for a fightin', and a-rightin' a wrong, grizzly as a bear and twice as strong.
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild fron-tier! (X2)
His land is biggest an' his land is best, from grassy plains to the mountain crest
He's a-head of us all, meetin' the test, followin' his legend into the West
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild fron-tier!
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild fron-tier!

TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALLGAME 3/4 123 123
Katie Casey was baseball mad, had the fever and had it bad. Katie Casey saw all the games, knew the players by their first names
Just to root for the home town crew, ev'ry cent, Katie spent Told the umpire he was wrong, all a-long, good and strong.
On a Saturday her young beau called to see if she'd like to go When the score was just two to two, Katie Casey knew what to do
To see a show but Miss Kate said, "No, I'll tell you what you can do....." CHORUS Just to cheer up the boys she knew, she made the gang sing this song..... CHORUS & CODA CHORUS:
Take me out to the ballgame, take me out with the crowd.
Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack, I don’t care if I never get back, and it’s
Root, root, root for the hometeam, if they don’t win it’s a shame.
For it’s one, two, three strikes you’re out at the old ball- game. CODA:
For it’s one, two, three strikes you’re out at the old ball- game.

YOU’RE A GRAND OLD FLAG w. m. George M. Cohan 4/4 1234 12
HIT
You’re a grand old flag, you’re a high flying flag
And forever in peace may you wave
You’re the em - blem of the land I love, the home of the free and the brave
Every heart beats true for the red, white, and blue
Where there’s never a boast or brag
Should auld acquaintance be forgot, keep your eye on the grand old flag
Keep your eye on the grand old flag

OH, SUSANNA 4/4 1…2…1234
I COME FROM ALABAMA WITH A BANJO ON MY KNEE
I'M GOING TO LOUSIANA, MY TRUE LOVE FOR TO SEE.
IT RAINED ALL NIGHT THE DAY I LEFT, THE WEATHER IT WAS DRY
THE SUN SO HOT I FROZE TO DEATH, SUSANNA, DON'T YOU CRY.
(CHORUS):
OH, SUSANNA, O DON'T YOU CRY FOR ME
'CAUSE I COME FROM ALABAMA WITH AN UKULELE ON MY KNEE
I HAD A DREAM THE OTHER NIGHT WHEN EVERYTHING WAS STILL
I THOUGHT I SAW SUSANNA DEAR, A-COMIN' DOWN THE HILL.
A BUCKWHEAT CAKE WAS IN HER MOUTH, A TEAR WAS IN HER EYE,
SAYS I, "I'M COMING FROM THE SOUTH, SUSANNA, DON'T YOU CRY."
(CHORUS)
ON THE ROAD AGAIN 4/4 1234 12
On the road again, just can’t wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin’ music with my friends, and I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain.
On the road again, goin’ places that I’ve never been
Seein’ things that I may never see again, and I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain.
On the road again, like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We’re the best of friends, insisting that the world be turnin’ our way….and our way
Is on the road again, just can’t wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin’ music with my friends, and I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain
And I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain. And I can’t wait to get on the road a-gain.
