Lyrics:

[Verse 1]

I pounded on a farmhouse

Looking for a place to stay

I was mighty, mighty tired

I'd come a long, long way

I said, “Hey, hey, in there

Is there anybody home?”

I was standin' on the steps

Feeling most alone

When out comes a farmer

He must've thought that I was nuts

He immediate looked at me

And stuck a gun into my guts

[Verse 2]

I fell down

To my bended knees

Saying, “I dig farmers

Don’t shoot me, please!”

He cocked his rifle

And begin to shout

“Are you that travelin' salesman

That I have heard about”

I said, “No! No! No!

I’m a doctor and it’s true

I’m a clean-cut kid

And I been to college, too”

[Verse 3]

Then in comes his daughter

Whose name was Rita

She looked like she stepped out of

La Dolce Vita

I immediately tried to cool it

With her dad

And told him what a

Nice, pretty farm he had

He said, “What do doctors

Know about farms, pray tell?”

I said, “I's born

At the bottom of a wishing well”

[Verse 4]

Well, by the dirt 'neath my nails

I guess he knew I wouldn’t lie

He said “I guess you’re tired”

He said it kind of sly

I said, “Yes, ten thousand miles

Today I drove”

He said, “I got a bed for you

Underneath the stove

Just one condition

You can go to sleep right now

That you don’t touch my daughter

And in the morning, milk the cows”

[Verse 5]

I was sleeping like a rat

When I heard something jerkin’

There stood Rita

Looking just like Tony Perkins

She said, “Would you like to take a shower?

I’ll show you up to the door”

I said, “Oh, no! no!

I’ve been through this movie before”

I knew I had to split

But I did not know how

When she said

“Would you like to take that shower, now?”

[Verse 6]

Well, I couldn’t leave

Unless the old man chased me out

Because I’d already promised

That I’d milk his cows

I had to say somethin'

To strike him very weird

So I yelled out

“I like Fidel Castro and his beard”

Rita looked offended

But she got out of the way

As he came charging down the stairs

Sayin', “What’s that I heard you say?”

[Verse 7]

I said, “I like Fidel Castro

I think you heard me right”

And I ducked as he swung

At me with all his might

Rita mumbled somethin'

'bout her mother on the hill

As his fist it hit the icebox

He said he’s gonna kill me

If I don’t get out the door

In two seconds flat

“You unpatriotic

Rotten doctor Commie rat”

[Verse 8]

Well, he threw a Reader’s Digest

At my head and I did run

I did a somersault

As I seen him get his gun

And crashed through the window

At a hundred miles an hour

And landed fully blast

In his garden flowers

Rita said, “Come back!”

As he started to load

The sun was coming up

And I was running down the road

[Verse 9]

Well, I don’t figure I’ll be back

There for a spell

Even though Rita moved away

And got a job in a motel

He still waits for me

Constant, on the sly

He wants to turn me in

To the F.B.I

Me, I romp and stomping

Thankful as I romp

Without freedom of speech

I might be in the swamp
