Tom : E
E
[Verse 1]
N.C. A
Took a Nine Eleven 'bout a hundred and seven down a back road
B E B
Where the white river runs and the southern sun makes the kudzu grow
E A
And what I found in the Ozark mountains I ain't ever seen
B E B
It sure does feel like you're sittin' on the top of the world to me
[Chorus]
E A
Gotta get down, gotta get down to Arkansas
B E B
Havin' so much fun that it's probably a little bit against the law
E A
All the boys and the girls down there sure do know how to have a ball
B B D A
If you wanna get down, gotta get down to Arkansas
[Verse 2]
E A
Well, we burned through the one light towns likе a scalded dog
B E B
When we lit out of Fayеtteville, they were callin' the hogs
E A
We made a pit stop in Little Rock for some barbecue
B E B
And when we hit West Memphis there were blue lights in our rear view
[Chorus 2x]
[Instrumental]
| E | A | B | E | B | E | A | B | E | D | A |
[Chorus]
