My Washington Woman
Recorded by Kenny Rogers
Written by Dallas Frazier and Arthur Leo Owens

C F G7
The wages of an unskilled working man never paid enough
C F G7
From time to time the nickel race keeps him from giving up
C F C F
The blue collared man in Seattle never lives on white collared street
C F G7 C
But there was food on the table for my Washington woman and me

F G7
The work slowed down and then one day the foreman laid me off
C F G7
That night in a tavern down to my last dime I met a girl from Arkansas
C F
Her daddy was a banker in Little Rock
C F
She had a mansion on white collared street
C F G7 C G7
The next morning my Washington woman woke up without me

C F G7
From city to city and state to state I grew heavier with shame
C F
My Washington woman had six months left
G7
Before our child would bring her pain
C F C F
My Arkansas woman hurt me as we crossed the Arkansas line
C F G7 C G7
But the arms of Seattle were the arms that kept hugging my mind

C F G7
For years I've basked in expensive wines taste cheaper every day
C F G7
I gave up all the things I loved for all these things I hate
C F C F
And locked up all of her forgiveness the day I set myself free
C F G7 C G7
And the heart of my Washington woman stopped beating for me

C F G7
My Washington woman sends me a letter every once in a while
C F G7
Inside a folded wordless page is a picture of my child
C F C F
All at once the room grows cold with a feeling of jealousy
C G7 C
And there's a silence between my Arkansas woman and me
