Verse 1
Am
E
His love for John was thirty -one,
Too much whiskey and cigarettes
E
Am
cut fossils in his face
Dm
Am
All of his brothers made fun of him
E
Am
John just looked at the ground
E
Am
But the devil done calmed him down
Now Clubfoot John was six foot one,
E
Am
but he never did walk up straight
He broke his foot in a muskrat trap
Dm
Am
So he drug his toe out the side of him,
E
Am
leaving a trail like a snake
Dm
Am
He had a tattoo on his forearm
E
Am
Patsy Twirl was a hell of a girl
E

E
Am
John met at the Busybody Lounge
E
Am
They were driving home on 41
G
E
Dm
Am
when a smokey caught John with an ounce
Dm
Am
So he put him on an Indiana road crew,
E
Am
but Patsy Twirl drove back around.
Am
E
with a pickup truck,
Am
E
but she came to break her loving man out. Yeah.

Now, Patsy and John went
to have some fun
E
Dm
Am
They got them a bottle of bean
John got drunk and ran the truck
E
Am
To the bottom of a ravine
Dm
Am
Right smack into a telephone pole
E
Am
The doctors just left him for dead
E
Am
So she put him in the care of his dad
John's old man was a veteran,
E
Am
and he was tough as a two -dollar stake.
A little bit of prayer and a lot of hard work
E
Am
a good man, his son would make.
Dm
G
Am
So John went along with his father,
E
Am
and took a shovel into his hand.
Dm
Am
With his worn out body in the August sun,
E
Am
he was making up for all them sins.
John told me a secret,
E
Am
about a ride with the Barbarossa gang.
They were drinking down at the river camp,
E
Am
when things got a little out of hand.
Dm
Am
John caught some fella eye in' his girl
E
Am
And fired a pistol straight at his nose
Am
