VERSE
 G                        C          G
First time old Dood laid eyes on Juanita
 G                   D           G
Knew then and there she was the one
     G                     C            G
She gave him a love every man knows is needed
     G                        D          G  G  G  G
She gave him a daughter, she gave him a son
 
 
VERSE
     G                      C          G
One day, while Juanita was out in the garden
   G                      D        G
A bandit rode up without makin' a sound
          G                      C            G
Dood was working the plow, far away from his rifle
 G                          D           G
Tried to get to it but the bandit drew down
 
 
VERSE
      C                       G
Last thing he remembered was Juanita's screamin'
        G                                   D
As the world faded black and Dood crumpled down
         G                      C             G
When hе came to the bandit was nowherе to be seen
     G                    D          G
His true love Juanita nowhere to be found
 
 
CHORUS
   C                    G
A man and his rifle, a mule and his hound
 G                  D          G
One in the saddle, one on the ground

VERSE;
         G                       C          G
Saw the ball had passed through clean as a church floor
         G                      D         G
And the wound was washed up by Sams, old hound
       G                       C            G
So he saddled up Shamrock and powdered his rifle
 G                         D             G
Put on his old hat, worn, weathered and brown
 
 
VERSE
          C                        G
Told his son to stay strong, take care of his sister
      G                            D
'Til Daddy returned Mama safe and sound
           G                  C           G
Then they set out together to go find Juanita
G                            D          G
Old Dood in the saddle, and Sam on the ground
        G                     D        G
Vowin' never to stop 'til Juanita was found
 
 
CHORUS
   C                    G
A man and his rifle, a mule and his hound
 G                  D          G
One in the saddle, one on the ground
 
 
OUTRO
 G                      D          G
One in the saddle, and one on the ground
