[Verse 1]
Lives on a farm, got plenty of charm, beep, beep
He's got no cows but he's sure got a whole lot of sheep
A brand new wife and a family
And when he comes to town, I wonder if he'll play with me

[Verse 2]
Laying in bed, watching TV, cookie!
With his mama by his side, she's Japanese
They scream and they cried, now they're free
And when he comes to town, I know he's gonna play with me

[Verse 3]
He's a long-haired, cross-legged guitar picker, um-um
With his long-legged lady in the garden picking daisies for his soup
A forty acre house he doesn't see
Because he's always in town, playing for you with me

[Verse 4]
I play guitar, A - D - E
I don't play bass 'cause that's too hard for me
I play the piano if it's in C
And when I go to town, I wanna see all three
And when I go to town, I wanna see all three
And when I go to town, I wanna see all three

Ringo Starr

Best known as the drummer for The Beatles, Ringo Starr (born Richard Starkey, 1940) also had a moderately successful solo career (with hits like “It Don’t Come Easy” and “Photograph”) and was the narrator for Thomas The Tank Engine.

His country-infused nickname emerged from a tendency to wear rings on his fingers.
