Breaker Breaker 1-9, this here's the captain.
[F] Y'all got your ears on out there?
Come on.
10-4, good [D#] buddy.
This here's Dr.
[D] D.
What's your 20?
[D#m] [E] We're rolling through [G] Bacon County right now.
You know what they say, son.
Keep her [C] between the niches or you'll [F#] wind up naked with a [F] dang on your toe.
10 [E]-4.
[A]
[G] [A]
[E] [Em]
Well, I raced some hell in them [G] Georgia pines.
Cookin' up speed, makin' moonshine.
I had heaven [A] on earth in a mobile [Em]
home.
Back in the woods [B] 20 miles [Em] from the road.
I had a woman and a dog both mean as hell.
Killed a dealer [B] named Booth who was brought down [Em] the well.
So detectives came, they were lookin' for Booth.
I said, we ain't seen nobody here but you.
He could smell that speed and he called [E] me a liar.
[A] [E] So I shot him in the head then I set him on [E] fire.
[F] [A] I remember my daddy sayin' long ago, better hit your knees boy, pray [C#m] to the Lord.
[E] You're gonna wind up [A] naked with a tag on your [B] toe.
Dead end the making, countin' more.
Dead end the making, [E] countin' more.
Yeah!
[A]
[Em]
[Em] Well, word got around the detective died.
So they sent a hundred [B] agents from the [Em] FBI.
We were sure [A] outgunned, [Em] sure outmanned.
I had a 12-gauge pump and a pistol in my hand.
[E] Well, they shot [A] my woman and they shot [Em] my dog.
I just couldn't sit there like a bum on a log.
So I yelled out, boys, [A] if you want [Em] me alive, come get me and my trailer and we'll all survive.
Well, speed was a-cookin' when I came [E] through the door.
[Em] I shot the [A#m] propane tank man and settled the [Em] score.
[B] [A] I remember my daddy [E] sayin' long ago, better hit your knees boy, pray to the [C#m] Lord.
[E] You're gonna wind up [A] naked with a tag on [B] your toe.
Dead end the making, [E] countin' more.
[B] Dead end the making, [E] countin' more.
