INTRO: G D G D

G D

With a halo of gnats around my cotton-pickin' head

A

You never even listened to a single word I said

G D

You sit there on your pompous ass and click your fancy heels

A

Contemplate another piece of art that you can steal

G D Bm

Yeah you're rich and you're good-lookin' and outstanding in your field

G D

But I'm the real deal, no you can't know how I feel

G D

'Cause I'm the real, real real deal

G D G D

Ah ya bet your sweet petuti I'm the real deal

G D

You may always be rich and I may always be poor

A

You're the kind that never gets enough of wantin' more

G D

Hittin' on my friends, swingin' on my doors

A

Here's a little somethin's gonna even up the score

G D Bm

Try as you may you can't know how I feel

G D

'Cause I'm the real deal, oh you can't know how I feel

G D

'Cause I'm the real, real real deal

G D G D

Ah ya bet your sweet petuti I'm the real deal

G D

I used to chop that cotton sometimes leanin' on my hoe

A

But we all know a hoe ain't just a hoe anymore

G D

You educated gals are 'sposed to be so damned smart

A

Sometimes you fool around and get the horse behind the cart

G D Bm

I got one foot in the grave the other 'un on a 'nanner peel

G D

But I'm the real deal, I can make you young girls squeal

G D

'Cause I'm the real, real real deal

G D

You bet your sweet petuti I'm the real deal
