[Intro]
E


[Verse 1]
  E               A                  E
Ramona lived just down the hill from us
                                         B7
She kept the house, her mother drove the bus (an old yellow school bus)
  A                       E
Ramona had a handicap the neighborhood knew well
                B7                E
Ramona couldn't speak or couldn't spell
E
(Which put Ramona at a considerable disadvantage among the more fluent)


[Verse 2]
  E                   A                  E
Although she couldn't write and couldn't talk
                           B7
Ramona really had a pretty walk (a four-letter figure)
  A                                    E
Because she couldn't write or speak, nobody asked her out
                     B7              E
But Bad Eye Thompson hung around the house
E
(He was what you might say a familiar figure in the neighborhood)


[Verse 3]
  E                A                E
I guess their handicaps were common ground
                                  B7
For Bad Eye Thompson always hung around
A                                   E
He could squint that eye and spit tobacco thirty feet
              B7                      E
Ramona always grinned and stomped her feet
E
(Because Ramona considered that to be one of the better local acts)


[Verse 4]
E               A               E
One day, Ramona found herself a child
                                      B7
She couldn't speak, her mom was going wild
   A                                 E
Confusion reigned for half a day, as one could understand
                      B7             E
The county judge came down to take a hand
E
(And I think it should be noted here, in the interest of justice
E
that the judge was acting in a strictly unofficial capacity)


[Verse 5]
    E                   A              E
The neighbors gathered 'round Ramona's porch
                                          B7
The judge said, "Understand this is not a court".
  A                                E
Ramona stood as all the breathless neighbors gathered 'round
N.C.
Then, she closed one eye and [*pbt*] spat upon the ground
E
(And it's a familiar old saying that "birds of a feather will flock together"
E
And justice will be done, that's right)
