INTRO COUNT: 1 2 3 4 STRUM: D- Du D- Du
[D] [D]
{soc}
It's [D] Bud the Spud, from the [G] bright red [D] mud
Rollin down the highway [A7] smilin
The spuds are big on the back of Bud's rig and they're from Prince Edward [D] Island
They're [A7] from Prince Edward [D] Island [D]
{eoc}
[D] Now from Charlottetown or from [D7] Summerside
They [G] load him down for the big long ride
He [A7] jumps in the cab and he's off with the prize [D] Sabagoes
He's gotta catch the boat to make [D7] Tormentine
Then he [G] hits up that old New Brunswick line
Through [A7] Montreal he comes just a flyin'
With another big load of [D] potatoes
{soc}
It's [D] Bud the Spud, from the [G] bright red [D] mud,
Rollin down the highway [A7] smilin
The spuds are big on the back of Bud's rig and they're from Prince Edward [D] Island
They're [A7] from Prince Edward [D] Island [D]
{eoc}
(Spoken) [D] "Now the Ontario Provincial Police don't think much of Bud."
[D] Ya the cops have been lookin for the [D7] son-of-a-gun
Who's bin [G] rippen the tar off the 401
You [A7] know the name on the truck shines up in the sun [D] "Green Gables"
But he hits Toronto and its [D7] seven o'clock
When he [G] backs 'er up agin' the terminal dock
And the [A7] boys gather round just to hear him talk
About another big load of [D] potatoes
{soc}
It's [D] Bud the Spud, from the [G] bright red [D] mud,
Rollin down the highway [A7] smilin
The spuds are big on the back of Bud's rig
And they're from Prince Edward [D] Island
They're [A7] from Prince Edward [D] Island [D]
{eoc}
[D] Now I know a lot of people from [D7] east to west
That [G] like the spuds from the island best
Cause they'll [A7] stand up to the hardest test "right on the [D] table"
So when you see the big truck a [D7] Rollin by,
[G] wave your hand or kinda wink your eye
Cause that's [A7] Bud the Spud from old P.E.I
With another big load of po-[D]tatoes
{soc}
[D] It's Bud the Spud from the [G] bright red mud, rollin down the highway [A7] smilin'
{c:Slow down and speak the next two lines}
[NC] Because he's got another big load
[NC] Of the best dog gone potatoes that's ever been growed
[NC] And they're [A7] from Prince Edward [D] Island
They're [A7] from Prince Edward [D] Island [D]*
