Roosevelt And Ira Lee Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 (Blues riff in E)

EThe river was dark and muddy

And the moon was on the rise

And all of the creatures in the swampland

Had woke up to feed for the night

Roosevelt and Ira Lee were sitting there on a log

Ira Lee turned to Roosevelt and said

I'd sure like to have a mess of bullfrog

 He said Eyeah yGeah laAwd sure would taste Egood

ESo they slipped on their rubber boots

And walked down to the water's edge

And right away they knew that the night would be a bummer

 'Cause Ira Lee stepped on a water moccasin he said Eugh uGgh lAawd

 Somebody heElp me

EIra Lee turned to Roosevelt when he quit his screaming and kicking

And he said let's forget about those bullfrog legs

And go out and steal us some chickens

And Old Roosevelt said like this now

EYeah yGeah oAoh it sure would taste gEood

Yes it would, I love my chicken

The river was dark and muddy
