Verse 1: [12-string plays intro riff throughout]

	A        E    D         A     (A) E  D  A
	I don't care what they say
	A          E       D  A     (A) E  D  A
	I'm gonna keep it anyway
	A        E          D            A     (A) E  D  A
	I won't let them stretch their necks
	A                       E             D            A     (A) E  D  A
	To see my little black egg with the little white specks

Chorus:

	F#               E           [slide up to F# throughout]
	I found it in a tree
	F#              E
	Just the other day
	F#            E
	And now it's mine, all mine
	F#                   E
	They won't take it away

	[my Kapp single goes directly to next verse; the version on the
	 Rhino "Nuggets" comp repeats intro riff twice]

Verse 2:

	Here comes Mary, here comes Lee
	I'll bet what they want to see
	I won't let them stretch their necks
	To see my little black egg with the little white specks

	[repeat chorus]

Verse 3:

	Oh, goldurn, what can I do?
	The little black egg's gonna tell on you
	I won't let them stretch their necks
	To see my little black egg with the little white specks

Coda:

	     A            E    D   A
	The little black egg...      [repeat to fade]
