Verse 1
G
Well, the old man was covered
with tattoos and scars
C
He got some in prison and others in bars
D
And the rest he got workin'
G
on old junk cars in the daytime
they looked like like tombstones in our yard
C
And I never seen him
D
when he wasn't tired and mean

Verse 2
G
Well, he sold used parts to make ends meet
C
Covered with grease
from his head to his feet
D
Cussing the sweat
G
and the Texas heat and mosquitoes
And the neighbors said we lived like hicks
C
But they brum their cars
D
G
for my pa to fix anyhow
Verse 3
G
While he was veteran proud, tried and true
C
He fought 'til his heart was black and blue
D
And I don't know how
G
how he made it through the hard times
He bought our house on the GI Bill
C
But it wasn't worth
D
G
all he had to kill to get it
Verse 4
G
He drank Pearl in a can, Jack Daniel's black
C
Chewed tobacco from a mail pouch sack
D
And he had an old dog
G
that was trained to attack sometimes
While he'd get drunk
and mean as a rattlesnake
C
Never wasn't too much
D
G
that he would take from a stranger
Pre-chorus 1
C
D
I was 13 kids and a bunch of dogs
G
C
A house full of chickens and a yard full of hogs
D
I spent the summertime
C
D
G
cuttin' up logs for the winter
C
D
Tryin' like the devil to find the Lord
G
C
Working like a slave for my room and board
Am
Cold burning stoves, no natural gas
G
And if that ain't country, I'll kiss your ass
Chorus 1
C

G
If that ain't country, it'll hair lift the pope
C

C
D
I've been on the grand old Opry
G
C
And I know Johnny Cash
D
And if he ain't country,
G
I'll kiss your ass
Verse 5
G
Well, my mama sold eggs at a grocery store
C
And my oldest sister was a first-rate whore
D
My daddy said she couldn't come
G
home anymore, and he meant it
Now, mama, she was old, far beyond her time
C
And her hair was gray,
and I've seen her crying
D
She was talking about Junior,
G
said he was dying in prison
Verse 6
G
Why, she told all the neighbors
he was off to the war
C
He was fighting for courage,
D
G
he was good to the core, and she was proud
Now, our house
was a graveyard for automobile
C
And around the porch
was a bunch of old wheels
D
And some used Harley-Davidson parts
G
that we sold for cash
Pre-chorus 2
C
D
There was 50 holes and an old tin roof
G
C
Me and my family was living proof
Am
And everybody called me old poor white trash
G
And if that ain't country, I'll kiss your ass

Outro 1
G
C
And I'm dreaming tonight of my blue eyes
D
G
Concernin' the great speckled birds
C
I didn't know God made honky-tonk angels
D
G
And went back to the to the wild side of life
That a little late
