Capo 3 
  
    D                              G                                D  
I'm calling from the station and I haven't got much time to let you know 
           D                               G                             A 
I've got a ticket for Missouri and there's things I need to say before I go 
     G                                D   
If I could I'd have you meet me but I don't see how I can 
  D                             G 
I don't have enough to pay your fare 
          G                          D 
There's a factory in Columbus hiring now I understand 
    G                      A           D 
And they're looking for an able bodied man 
 
  
You should receive some money in a letter that I mailed two days ago 
But when I wrote the letter saying you could come to me I didn't know 
That I was going yo lose my job in such a little while 
So now we're going to have to change our plans 
They may not hire me in Columbus but I'm pretty sure they will 
Cause they're looking for an able bodied man 
  
 
 
Change key to E 
 
       E                           A                             E 
If I'd had more education I'd have made a better life for me and you 
         E                          A                            B  
But such simple manual labor is the only kind of work that I can do 
           A                         E 
The bus is loading for Missouri so I guess I better go 
     E                     A 
I'll call you as soon as I can 
        A                            E 
I'll be sending you a ticket cause I think I'll get the job 
           A              B           E 
If they're looking for an able bodied man 
      A               B           E   
And remember I'm your able bodied man
