[D] [A]
Barefoot, running across the fields of Alabama's fresh plowed ground.
Jumping rows [E] and stubbing toes, I'd run that old [A] mule down and daddy up his water jug.
boy, my throat sure is dry.
He'd take out his old [E] bandana and he'd wipe the sweat [A] from his eyes.
[D] I'd take hold [E] of his calloused hands and we'd go [A] sit [A] down in the shade.
[D] And he'd [E] tell me about the places [B]
that [E] we were gonna see [A] someday.
