[Ebm] I [Eb] got a crib full of corn [Ab] and a turning plow, [Bb] but the ground's too wet [Eb] for the hopper now.
[Ebm] I got a [Eb] cultivator [Ab] and a double tree, [Bb] and a leather line [Eb] for the hawing gee.
[Ebm] Let the thunder roll [Ab] and the lightning flash, [Bb] I'm doing all right [Eb] for country trash.

[Bb] [Eb]
I'm saving up dimes [Ab] for a rainy day, [Bb] and I got about a dollar [Eb] laid away.
The wind's from the south and [Ab] the fishing's good, [Bb] got a pot-bellied stove [Eb] and a cord of wood.
Mama turns the [Ab] leftovers into hash, [Bb] so I'm doing all right [Eb] for country trash.

I got a Mackinaw and [Ab] a hunting dog, [Bb] and a cap that I ordered from [Eb] the catalog.
