Country Bumpkin Lyrics by Cal Smith


Cal Smith Lyrics

He walked up to the bar and parked his
Lanky frame upon a tall barstool
And with a long soft southern drawl said
I'll just have a glass of anything that's cool

A barroom girl with hard and knowing eyes
Slowly looked him up and down
And she thought I wonder how on earth
That country bumpkin found his way to town

And she said hello country bumpkin
How's the frost out on the pumpkin
I've seen some sights but man you're something
Where'd you come from country bumpkin

It was just a short year later in a bed
Of joy-filled tears yet death-like pain
Into this wondrous world of many wonders
One more wonder came

That same woman's face was wrapped up
In a raptured look of love and tenderness
As she marveled at the soft and warm
And cuddly boy child feeding at her breast

And she said hello country bumpkin
Fresh as frost out on the pumpkin
I've seen some sights but babe you're something
Mama loves her country bumpkin

Forty years of hard work later
In a simple quiet and peaceful country place
The heavy hand of time had not erased
The raptured wonder from the woman's face

She was lying on her death bed
Knowing fully well her race was nearly run
But she softly smiled and looked into
The sad eyes of her husband and her son

And she said so long country bumpkin
The frost is gone now from the pumpkin
I've seen some sights and life's been something
See you later country bumpkin
