C D G Chorus: There was just one mosquito, C D G I’m sure you’d be happy to know. C D G And I’m really quite glad, You know , it wasn’t all that bad C D G ‘Cause there was just one mosquito 1) G But there were blackflies by the thousands D And they’d swarm around my head. D7 G They’d crawl on up my nostrils, At least they were well fed. G C C7 The no-see-ums and giant horseflies tried to carry me away, D D7 D G But the biggest threat was never met, they never came into play. (Repeat Chorus) 2) There were rattlesnakes by the dozens, They’d slither around my feet, They’d squiggle into my sleeping bag, For an instant rise in heat. every rock, And every morning I’d start out by shaking them from my socks. (Repeat Chorus) 3) It was hot and dusty travelin’, a hundred and four in the shade, And if I found a tree every 25 miles, I’d think I had it made. I had blisters the size of coffee-cups, On each and every heel. My face it was so sunburned, It was red as an apple peel. (Repeat Chorus) 4) There were sandstorms every day, and twisters every night, The springs were full of scummy things And cowflop, what a sight. There were lightning storms & thunder, Rain, how it would pour. And every time a bird flew by, he’d drop me a something more! (Repeat Chorus)
