I'm leavin' town and leavin' at eight
C                                                 Gm
Got me my fishing pole and the ice chest on its way
C                                         F#m
You know vacations don't come around soon enough
B                          Gm              C
So I just called in sick, said, "Screw the pay"

🎸 Verse 2:
C
Got me a few brews and a little barbeque no
                  Gm            C
My fold-up chair sittin' in the shade
C                                                     F#m
You know I ain't got the time 'cause I’ve been wastin it all
B              Gm                   C
Out where that river's a calling my name

🎸 Chorus:
Gm                                C
Out where that river's calling my name
Gm                                  C
I said that river's been a calling my name
Gm                                              C
I left my troubles back in town a few country miles away
F#m                     Gm              C
When I heard that river just a calling my name

🎸 Verse 3:
C
Now good ol' Alfred got to thinkin'
C
'Bout that boss man somethin' fierce
                                               Gm
He said, "That boss man he's been slaving me away"
C                                                             Fm
And when that boss man, he told Alfred to pull another double shift
          B                  Gm       B               C
He said, "You know I don't think I'm feelin' so good today"

🎸 Verse 4:
C
Now good ol' Alfred he weren't citified now
C
Never really paid it no mind
                                              Gm
But he said, "Them city slickers move way too fast!"
B                             Gm           Bm                        C
Now you can just Go on 'bout your business, really doing nothing at all
B              Gm           Bm                  C
I'd rather be dirty sittin' barefoot in the grass

🎸 Chorus:
Gm                                C
Out where that river's calling my name
Gm                                  C
I said that river's been a calling my name
Gm                                              C
I left my troubles back in town a few country miles away
F#m                     Gm              C
When I heard that river just a calling my name

I'd rather be dirty sittin' barefoot in the grass
