Verse 1:
I'm [F]tired of this dirty old [Bb]city.
En[F]tirely too much work and never enough [C]play.
And I[F]'m tired of these dirty old[Bb] sidewalks.
Think I'l[F]l walk off my s[C]teady job today[F].
Chorus:
[F]Turn me loose, set me free, [Bb]somewhere in the middle of Mon[F]tanna.
And gimme all I got comin' to me[C],
And [F]keep your retirement and your[Bb] so called social se[F]curity.
Big City turn me [C]loose and set me fre[F]e.
Verse 2:
Been working everyday since I was twenty.
Haven't got a thing to show for anything I've done.
There's folks who never work and they've got plenty.
Think it's time some guys like me had some fun.
