David Allan Coe - If That Ain't Country (part 2) guitar chord
David Allan Coe
If That Ain't Country (Part 2)
Capo1
A D
Well I’m just an old man now, was with scars
E
Most of them I got fightin’ in them redneck bars
A
And a bunch of new tattoos Squench put on me
D
Why he covered up the ones I got years ago
E
Back in prison when I was just Dave Coe
A
And I wasn’t famous then, and I wasn’t free
D
Well I grew up in a three room run down shack
E
At the foot of a mountain by a railroad track
A
Where decent folk don’t go when the sun goes down
D
Now daddy work the coal mines and he worked on cars
E
And momma’d go to church and daddy’d go to bars
A
An most folks just called it the hillbilly part of town
A D
We had a 55 Chevy when I was fifteen
E
I painted it red but I was still green
A
Shit I couldn’t even afford to buy gas
D E
I had a 410 rifle and a Bowie knife too
A D
Redman tobacco that I liked to chew
E
And we’d count the car when the train when past
A
And If That Ain’t Country, I’ll Kiss Your Ass
Chorus:
D E A
If That Ain’t Country, it'll hair lip the pope
D E A
If That Ain’t Country, it's a damn good joke
D E
I’ve been on The Grand Ole Opry,
A D
I know Johnny Cash
E A
And If He Ain’t Country, What?
A D
Now one of my sisters was a lady of the night
E
And then one day she saw the light
A
Now she don’t do those things that she used to do
D
She never made the funeral when daddy died
E
An I said I’d forgive her but I guess I lied
A
There’s just no way to hide the way I feel
D
Now me and my brother took our sister Diane
E
Down to the funeral home to see the old man
A
Jimmy was the oldest and Diane was the youngest one
D
Now Ray was in the middle and there was me
E
And I’m the one at twenty-three
A
Who grew up to be that Yankee’s rebel son
D
Now times are changin’ I’ve heard folks say
E
It’s been ten years since my daddy past away
A
But I can still picture him in his overalls
D
Covered with grease from his head to his feet
E A
Cussin' the sweat and the Texas heat, and mesquiters
A D
Standin’ by the house where he made his deals
E
And around the porch was a bunch of old wheels
A
And a couple Harley Davidson parts daddy sold for gas
D E
There was fifty holes in an old tin roof
A D
Me and my family we was livin' proof
E
A perfect example of poor white trash
A
And If That Ain’t Country, I’ll Kiss Your Ass
Chrous2:
D E A
If That Ain’t Country, it'll hair lip the pope
D E A
If That Ain’t Country, it's a damn good joke
D E
Been on The Grand Ole Opry,
A D
And I know Johnny Cash
E A
And If He Ain’t Country, What?
E A
And If That Ain’t Country, What?
E A
And If That Ain’t Country, What?
