Shade Tree (Fix-It-Man) Songtext
(Merle Haggard)
Yeah, I′m a shade tree fix-it man
I don't need any helping hand
I′m a Jack-of-all-trades when I'm workin' in the shade
I′m a shade tree-fix-it man.
Well, I headed out of west from Arkansas
My Ruby ran fine for a while
Then a rock started knockin′ a guage started rockin'
She wouldn′t run another mile.
But on that downhill drag I coasted for awhile
Till I found me a shady inn
I started huffin' and a puffin′, started a frettin' and a sweatin′
But I soon had her runnin' again.
'Cause I′m a shade tree fix-it man
I don′t need any helping hand
I'm a Jack-of-all-trades when I′m workin' in the shade
I′m a shade tree-fix-it man.
--- Instrumental ---
'Bout noon the next day I was back on the road
I had her running on out
While I was wheelin′ and a dealin' I got a funny feelin'
If my baby kinda felt this doubt.
Oh, I found me a shade by the side of the road
I fixed everything up fine
With a little bit of lovin′ in a few minutes later
We was rolling on down the line.
Cause I′m a shade tree fix-it man
I don't need any helping hand
I′m a Jack-of-all-trades when I'm workin′ in the shade
I'm a shade tree-fix-it man.
One more time I′m a shade tree fix-it man
I don't need any helping hand
I'm a Jack-of-all-trades when I′m workin′ in the shade
I'm a shade tree-fix-it man.
Yeah, I′m a shade tree fix-it man
I don't need any helping hand
I′m a Jack-of-all-trades when I'm workin′ in the shade
I'm a shade tree-fix-it man...
Yeah, I′m a shade tree fix-it man
I don't need any helping hand
I′m a Jack-of-all-trades when I'm workin' in the shade
I′m a shade tree-fix-it man.
Well, I headed out of west from Arkansas
