Sheriff of Boone County
As sung by Kenny Price
Thanx and a tip of the silverbelly hat to Oldtimer
who sent me the track, and to all the COWPIE fans who remember Kenny
Price.
Chorus:
(I) I don�t take no lip and this (IV) cannon on my hip,
(I) Let me tell you boy, it ain�t no (V) toy.
(I) I wear a hat just like a Mountie, I�m the (IV) SHERIFF OF BOONE
COUNTY,
(I) Let me tell you, boy, you�re in a (V) heap of (I) trouble.
Now if you try to push your Caddie from Nashville to Cincinnati
You have to come across the Boone County line.
Well if you aim on passin� through you�d better mind your p�s and q�s
�Cause this stretch of interstate, boy, is mine.
Well you might outrun my old Chevrolet but you can�t outrun my old
two-way.
Leon waitin� at the station to hear from me.
You�re gonna be a-wishin� I was leadin� that expedition
�Cause I�ll chase you all the way back to Tennessee.
Chorus:
I don�t take no lip and this cannon on my hip,
Let me tell you boy, it ain�t no toy.
I wear a hat just like a Mountie, I�m the SHERIFF OF BOONE COUNTY,
By the way, you�re in a heap of trouble, boy.
So far I guess you been lucky but now you�re in Boone County, Kentucky.
I don�t know how things are in Tennessee.
I�m the roughest you ever saw, around here I�m the law
And it�s been that way since nineteen forty-three.
Chorus:
I don�t take no lip and this cannon on my hip,
Let me tell you boy, it ain�t no toy.
I wear a hat just like a Mountie, I�m the SHERIFF OF BOONE COUNTY,
By the way, you�re in a heap of trouble, boy.
(Spoken ad lib) I run the grocery store down there and I pump the gas
and I�m the dogcatcher too, yeah. The judge, that�s me, put up your bond
for you if you like, and if you happen to wreck your car on the way to
the
courthouse�.
