Artist/Band: Merle Haggard
Lyrics for Song: Shade Tree Fix-It Man
Lyrics for Album: The Best [1968]



(Merle Haggard)



Yeah, I'm a shade tree fix-it man

I don't need any helping hand

I'm a Jack-of-all-trades when I'm workin' in the shade

I'm a shade tree-fix-it man.



Well, I headed out of west from Arkansas

My Ruby ran fine for a while

Then a rock started knockin' a guage started rockin'

She wouldn't run another mile.



But on that downhill drag I coasted for awhile

Till I found me a shady inn

I started huffin' and a puffin', started a frettin' and a sweatin'

But I soon had her runnin' again.



'Cause I'm a shade tree fix-it man

I don't need any helping hand

I'm a Jack-of-all-trades when I'm workin' in the shade

I'm a shade tree-fix-it man.



--- Instrumental ---



'Bout noon the next day I was back on the road

I had her running on out

While I was wheelin' and a dealin' I got a funny feelin'

If my baby kinda felt this doubt.



Oh, I found me a shade by the side of the road

I fixed everything up fine

With a little bit of lovin' in a few minutes later

We was rolling on down the line.



Cause I'm a shade tree fix-it man

I don't need any helping hand

I'm a Jack-of-all-trades when I'm workin' in the shade

I'm a shade tree-fix-it man.



One more time I'm a shade tree fix-it man

I don't need any helping hand

I'm a Jack-of-all-trades when I'm workin' in the shade

I'm a shade tree-fix-it man.



Yeah, I'm a shade tree fix-it man

I don't need any helping hand

I'm a Jack-of-all-trades when I'm workin' in the shade

I'm a shade tree-fix-it man...
