Copenhagen
by Robert Earl Keen Jr.

C                                   F
Now, I went out last Sunday with my little Mary-Ann
    G                                                   C
She said please stay still Monday, and grabbed me by my can
    C                     F
She laid a big one on me, suprised me with her tounge,
    G                                                   C
But her suprise was waitin' there, between my cheek and gum.


Chorus:
C
Copenhagen, what a wad of flavor.
C                                G
Copenhagen, you can see it in my smile.
C
Copenhagen, do yourself a favor.
     C                      G            C
Chew Copenhagen, drive them pretty girls wild.

So I went to the movies with my little Peggy-Sue,
I had my dip there in my lip just like I always do.
She didn't know that I was spittin' in my Coca-Cola cup,
she took a great big swoller' and threw her popcorn up!  Oh!

Chorus:

The moral of this story is so very sad but true.
If you stay 'till breakfast friend, they'll want to marry you.
So try my little method and I promise you no doubt
Dip some Copenhagen if you want to snuff 'em out.

This song has a great little intro to each verse.  It goes something like
this....
             G                      C
