Allegheny Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[VERSE 1]
[G]How she got that junk car runnin' God I'll never know
It ne[C]ver ran but once and set to winters in the s[G]now
Well imagine runnin' o[C]ut on me has I lay sound asleep Alleghe[G]ny
[A]My big mistake was thinkin' you we?re something I could ke[D]ep
You st[C]ole my winter's food supply and something else I fe[G]ar
My sa[C]vin's in the mattress have strangely disap[G]peared
Now those who know me b[C]est knows he who robs me best beware Alleghe[G]ny
[A]I'm gonna call up the dogs and hunt you down drag you back here by the h[D]air

[CHORUS]
Oh Al[C]legheny something tells me you're dissatisfied
Well is it a fact you we?re my mail-order br[G]ide
There's a half of you that's French yeah and you cr[C]ave a better style
And a half of you is Cherokee yeah and I've gone wild Alleghe[G]ny

[VERSE 2]
[A]She's got a head start on me as a crow flies half a d[D]ay
And un[C]less I miss my guess she'll stop to rest in Mon[G]terey
If I take the Knoxville Hi[C]ghway thirteen hours it will be Alleghe[G]ny
[A]I forgot I knew the shortcut I'll be there in less than th[D]ree
I sig[C]naled for the dogs to wait outside the hotel do[G]or
I described her to the desk clerk he s[C]aid try the second fl[G]oor

But he mentioned she's got company
And that marks the stra[C]nget's doom Allegh[G]eny
[A]I wish I was you so I could see my face when I bust into the ro[D]om

[CHORUS]
Oh [C]Allegheny something tells me you're dissatisfied
Well is it a fact you we?re my mail-order br[G]ide
There's a half of you that's French yeah and you cr[C]ave a better style
And a half of you is Cherokee yeah and I've gone wild Alleghe[G]ny
