Intro.: C/// C/// C/// C///
That (C)sleepy little campfire. Popped and kinda crackled.
We were heating up the pork and (G)beans.
And Bubba said, man it don't get any better than this.
If you know what I (C)mean.
We sat there for a minute, listening to the crickets.
Thinking this was pretty hard to (F)beat.
'Til (G)Junior stood up. Spit in the fire and said.
Boy's, I hate to disagree. (C7)
(Chorus 1)
But if a (F)busload of women, really good-looking women
just suddenly pulled in (C)here.
And ol' (G)Joe T. Garcia showed up with fajitas,
and a hundred gallon keg of (C7)beer.
And Haggard (F)dropped by and brought Willie with him.
And they started taking re-(C)quests.
Now (C)don't get me (ConB)wrong boy's.
(Am)This is pretty (G)good.
But it (F)could get (G)better than this. C/// C/// G/// G///
If Bill (C)Dance and Hank Parker floated by in a boat.
And volunteered to be our fishing (G)guides.
And Richard Petty pulled up in the old 43 car.
And asked us if we wanted a (C)ride.
We'd (C)all sit around. Singing "Poncho and Lefty".
Playing poker, smoking big ci-(F)gars.
Now (G)don't take offense ya'll. I'm perfectly content.
Just sitting here under the (C7)stars.
(Chorus 2)
But if a (F)busload of women, really good-looking women
just suddenly pulled in (C)here.
And ol' (G)Emeril Lagasse showed up with kielbasa
and a hundred gallon keg of (C7)beer.
And Haggard (F)dropped by and brought Willie with him.
And they started taking re-(C)quests.
Now (C)don't get me (ConB)wrong boy's.
(Am)This is pretty (G)good.
But it (F)could get (G)better than this.(C)
Insto.: F/// F/// F/// C/// F/// F/// F/// C7///

(Chorus 3)
But if a (F)busload of women, really good-looking women

And Little (G)Jimmy Dickens showed up with fried chicken
and a hundred gallon keg of (C7)beer.
Merle Haggard (F)dropped by and brought Willie with him.
And they started taking re-(C)quests.
Now (C)don't get me (ConB)wrong boy's.
(Am)This is pretty (G)good.
But it (F)could get (G)better than this.(C)
Yeah (C)don't get me (ConB)wrong boys.
(Am)This is pretty (G)good.
But it (F)could get (G)better than this. C/// C/// C/// C//
