E5 
Well sit down honey gotta have us a talk  

You man is a little upset  

There's a couple of things that's been missin' 

And I ain't found em yet  

I ain't pointin' no fingers ain't layin' no blame  
                          A5 
And I don't wanna lose my cool  
        E5                      A5 
But you just don't fool with a Country Boy's tool 
     E5    D5 A5  
Tool Box.  
 

          E5 
Now did I hear you right you loaned out  

To the neighbor down the road  

Hey I just as soon you let him have my ole bird dog  

Or my favorite fishing pole                              

Now there's one little lesson that you need to learn 
                              A5  
That they just don't teach in school 
    E5                      A5 
You just don't fool with a Country Boy's tool  
     E5     
Tool Box. 
 

       A5      E5            A5 
It was handed down from my daddy's dad  
        E5 
Back in nineteen forty-two 
         A5  
And they may be rusty and they might be old  
                                 B5 
But they're kinda like my family jewels  
      E5 
Honey I love you but there's something else too  
                              A5 
That I care about a heck of a lot  
       E5                      A5 
Oh you just don't fool with a Country Boy's tool  
     E5    D5 A5 
Tool Box.   
 

      E5 
Now I don't wanna hurt your tender heart  

And I really do understand  

That a friend in need is a friend indeed  

And you offered a helping hand  

But it something gets broke and it's gotta be fixed 
                            A5  
Well I don't blame you know who  
 

          E5                      A5         
Cause you just don't fool with a Country Boy's tool 
     E5     
Tool Box.
