Well, my mama met my daddy down in Alabama.
They tied the knot, so here I [G] am.
[A] Born on the bayou on the Texas line.
[E] Loved in Louisiana, raised on [D] Jambalaya.
[A] [E] Before I could walk, I had a guitar in my hand.
Last time I could talk, I had my own band.
[A] I went on the road when I was eight [E] years old.
When I turned 15, I was stealing the show.
[B] Funny to burn, and the girls were [Em] pretty.
Didn't take me long to learn that I [E] was born to cook.
[Bm]
[C#m] [E] When I was 18, I went to Hollywood.
[G] I met [C#m] Elvis from Maryland, Johnny B.
Goode.
Got my guitar [A] painted, and it was the California sun.
[E] A red Cadillac, having too much fun.
[A]
[E] Now we were playing them halls and jamming them,
and we moved it on over to MGM.
They said, this is the boy we've been telling you about.
He lit a cigar and he stuck his hand [D] out.
[A]
[F#] He said, son, have we [F#m] got a deal [F#] for you.
I'm going to make you a star, give you 50,000 views.
I told him, [B] my mama didn't raise no fool.
I'll take your money, I'll make you movies.
[C#] I can tell you right now, I [E] was born to boo you.
[A] [Em] [F#]
[G] [E] Well, my name is Bo Sebas.
I drink a whiskey by the gallon.
I never back down, and I love a good challenge.
What I do now is what I did then.
I like to give down to all my rowdy [D] friends.
[A] [E] Now I can be sweet, and I can be mean.
I still got my hat, and I still wear my jeans.
[C] My shades are chrome, my guitar's steel.
[E] If you think I won't, then believe me, I will.
Get [B] down on you, baby, because I ain't no [E] rookie.
I was put in a party, and I [Em] was born to boo you.
