G                                D 
Crossing that Highway Late last night 
C                                D 
He shoulda looked left and he shoulda looked right 
G                                D 
he didn't see that station wagon car 
C                                D 
it squashed that skunk and there you are 

G                                            D 
you got your dead skunk in the middle of the road 
C                        D 
dead skunk in the middle of the road 
G                                            D 
you got you dead skunk in the middle of the road 
C            D 
stinkin' to high heaven 

well you got your dead cat and you got your dead dog 
on lonely nights you got your dead toad frog 
you got your dead rabbit and you dead raccoon 
the blood and the guts are gonna make you swoon 

you got your dead skunk in the middle of the road 
dead skunk in the middle of the road 
dead skunk in the middle of the road 
stinkin' to high heaven 

Well take a wiff of me, that ain't no rose 
roll up your windows and hold your nose 
well you don't have to look and you don't have to see 
cuz you feel it in your old factory 

ou got your dead skunk in the middle of the road 
dead skunk in the middle of the road 
dead skunk in the middle of the road 
stinkin' to high heaven 

I'm Henry the 8th I am 
Henery the eighth I am I am 
I got married to the widow next door 
she's been narried seven times before 

And every one was a Henry 
Never was a Willy or a sam 
I'm the eighth old man Henry 
Henry the eighth I am
