[D]
Turpentine and dandelion wine I've turned the [G] corner and I'm doing fine
Shooting at [D] the birds on the telephone [A] line Picking them off with this gun of [G] mine
Got a fire in [D] my belly and a fire in my head Going [A] higher and higher till [D] I'm dead
Sister Sue is short and stout She didn't grow up, she [G] grew out
Mama says she's plain [D] but she's just being [A] kind
Papa thinks she's dirty [D] but he's almost blind [G] Don't let her out [D] much except at night
[A] But I don't care cause [D] I'm alright
Oh the sun shines bright on my [G] old Kentucky home
Young folks roll on the floor
[A] Oh the [D] sun shines bright on [G] my old Kentucky [D] home
Keep them hard times [A] away from [D] my door
Brother Gene is big and mean and he don't have [G] much to say
He had a little [D] woman who he whooped each [A] day but now she's [D] gone away
[G] Got drunk last [D] night, kicked Mama down [A] the stairs But I'm alright so I [D] don't care
Oh the sun shines bright on [G] my old Kentucky [D] home
And the young folks are rolling on the [Cm] floor
Oh [D] the sun shines bright [G] on my old [D] Kentucky home
Keep them hard [A] times away [D] from my door
Turpentine and dandelion wine I've turned the [G] corner and I'm doing fine
Shooting at the birds on [D] the telephone line [A] Picking them off with [D] this gun of mine
[G] Got a fire in my belly [D] and a fire in my head [A] Going higher and higher till [D] I am dead
Oh the sun shines bright [G] on my old [D] Kentucky home
And the young folks are rolling on the floor
[Cm] Oh [D] the sun shines bright [G] on my old [D] Kentucky home
Keep them hard [A] times away [D] from my door
[G]
[D] Keep them hard times away [G] from my door
