[VERSE 1]

I [A]lived on a farm out in [D]Iow[A]a
I [A]pulled the corn and I worked in the [E]hay
Go[A]t trapped by a girl but I wiggled [D]free
He[A]ard the Oregon timber [E]calling [A]me

[CHORUS]
Wi[A]ll you tell me something, Mr. [D]Lumber[A]jack?
Is[A] it one for forward and [E]three for back?
Is it [A]two for stop or four for [D]go?
[A]Boy, ask a whistle punk, I don't [A]know

[VERSE 2]
Well, I [A]learned this fact from a [D]logger named [A]Ray
You [A]don't cut timber on a [E]windy day
[A]Stay out of the woods when the moisture's [D]low
Or you [A]ain't gonna live to [E]collect your [A]dough

[CHORUS]

Wi[A]ll you tell me something, Mr. [D]Lumber[A]jack?
Is[A] it one for forward and [E]three for back?
Is it [A]two for stop or four for [D]go?
[A]Boy, ask a whistle punk, I [E]don't k[A]now

[VERSE 3]
Well you [A]work in the woods from [D]morning to [A]night
[A]You laugh and sing and you [E]cuss and fight
[A]On Saturday night you go to Eug[D]ene
And on a [A]Sunday morning, your [E]pockets are [A]clean

[CHORUS]

Wi[A]ll you tell me something, Mr. [D]Lumber[A]jack?
Is[A] it one for forward and [E]three for back?
Is it [A]two for stop or four for [D]go?
[A]Boy, ask a whistle punk, I don't [A]know
