|
Turpentine and dandelion wine |
|
I've turned the corner and I'm doin' fine |
|
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line |
|
Pickin' em off with this gun of mine |
|
I got a fire in my belly |
|
And a fire in my head |
|
Goin' higher and higher |
|
Until I'm dead |
|
Sister Sue, she's short and stout |
|
She didn't grow up - she grew out |
|
Mama says she's plain but she's just bein' kind |
|
Papa thinks she's pretty but he's almost blind |
|
Don't let her out much 'cept at night |
|
But I don't care 'cause I'm all right |
|
Oh, the sun shines bright on |
|
My Old Kentucky Home |
|
And the young folks roll on the floor |
|
Oh, the sun shines bright on |
|
My Old Kentucky Home |
|
Keep them hard times away from my door |
|
Brother Gene, he's big and mean |
|
And he don't have much to say |
|
He had a little woman who he whupped each day |
|
But now she's gone away |
|
He got drunk last night |
|
Kicked mama down the stairs |
|
But I'm all right so I don't care |
