I curse the day she bought me that old bird

Squalking,talking,telling everything it ever heard
C/G F
She never would have known about Big Betty Brown and me
C/G G C/G
But he fowled up and told her some things you won't believe
Verse 2:
C/G
Oh my woman moved out on me today
G
And left that old stool pigeon parrot trembling in his cage
C/G F
I hollered from the front porch and stopped her at the curb
C/G G C/G
And the last thing i gave her was the bird
Chorus:
C/G F
Oh the last thing i gave her was the bird
C/G
And she returned the favor with a few selected words
F C/G
I don't have to worry now what's being overheard
G C/G
'cause the last thing i gave her was the bird
Verse 3:

She sat the cage beside her on the seat

And left two streaks of firestone smokin' on the street

The neighbors ran for cover they could see she was disturbed
