"Ode to Billy Joe"
Key of F, Common Time "With a beat"
Words and music by Bobbie Gentry
F7
It was the third of June,
Cm7 F7
Another sleepy, dusty,
F7
I was out choppin' cotton
Cm7 F7
And my brother was bailin' hay
Bb7
And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat
F7
And Mama hollered at the back door,
Cm7 F7
"Y'all remember to wipe your feet."
Bb7
Then she said,
"I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge
F7
Today Billy Joe McAllister
Eb7 F
Jumped off the Tallahatchee Bridge."
