She would meet me in the mornin' on my way down to the river,
Am- D
Waiting patient by the China Berry tree

Am D
And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees.

I'd pay her no attention as she tagged along beside me,

Trying hard to copy ev'rything I did
Am D G
"Look a-yonder there goes Jody and the kid."

"Look yonder there goes Jody and the kid."
