[C]Bundled all up in his corduroy
[D7]Headed down south towards Illinois
From the jungles of East St. [G]Paul
His [G]manager sat in the office [C]alone
St[D7]aring at the numbers on the tel[G]ephone
Wondering how a man could send a child [C]actor
To vi[D7]sit in the land of the wind chill fa[G]ctor

S[G]abu was sad the whole tour st[C]unk

The roadie got the rabies, the scabies and the [C]flu
They was [D7]low on morale but they was high on [G]--
