[A] [Am] That
[D] [Am]
[D] ever great [C] believer said the [G] virtue of hard [D] work
Up [A] and down that piece of farmland
They kept [G] their heads dirt
It's a hard education
When you're afraid of the cock and [A] roe
[D] And early on I was [A] well acquainted
With the working end of the floor
[E] [Am]
[G] In my sixties summer
When I was wearing out old shoes
Daddy [D] knew I was just a fat boy
With [Em] less sense than a mule
[D] [G] But he knew in his wisdom

With a forty to lower forty

[G] Where the shoulders ache
The neck is baked
The [C] cotton is on the top
[Am] The war on weed and crabgrass
Is the [D] war [G] that just begun
Summertime, lift your [C] hands
There I came [G] to know
The [A] city of mine was open
On the working end of a hoe

Gets a thought of more than [Am] five

[D] Is the [G] almighty grace
These hearts would [D] undergo
If they had [A] to spend a good hot summer
On the working end [D] of a hoe
[C] Where [G] the shoulders ache
The neck is baked
[D] The cotton [Am] is on the top
The war on weed and crabgrass
Is the war that just [Gm] begun
Summertime, lift your [D] hands
