That's one of John Hartford's songs on the Album "Looks At Life."

There may be more verses....v.g.
Corn Cob Blues
D
Well the cowboy promoted the wedding you know
G D
Between the songs of his rock and roll show
The groom was thin, and the bride was a tease
G D
Recorded to the sound of his latest release
G D
They both were members of the back up crew
A D
And the thin man was thinkin' those corncob blues
D
Well the rain came down and the crowd was slow
G D
The cowboy hollered as he stubbed his toe
The signs on the trees from here to town
G D
Hurricane Apple couldn't knock them down
G D
The thin man stands in his water-logged shoes
A B
And keeps on thinking of those corncob blues
Well......
Maybe Harpgirl...has more on the lyrics.
