[Verse 1]
Well, the [G]old man was covered
with tattoos and scars
[C]He got some in prison and others in bars
[D]And the rest he got workin'
on old junk cars in the day[G]time
they looked like like tombstones in our yard
[C]And I never seen him
when he [D]wasn't tired and mean
[G]

[Verse 2]
Well, he [G]sold used parts to make ends meet
[C]Covered with grease
from his head to his feet
[D]Cussing the sweat
and the Texas heat and mosqui[G]toes
And the neighbors said we lived like hicks
[C]But they brum their cars
for my [D]pa to fix any[G]how

[Verse 3]
While [G]he was veteran proud, tried and true
[C]He fought 'til his heart was black and blue
[D]And I don't know how
how he made it through the hard [G]times
He bought our house on the GI Bill
[C]But it wasn't worth
all [D]he had to kill to get [G]it

[Verse 4]
He drank [G]Pearl in a can, Jack Daniel's black
[C]Chewed tobacco from a mail pouch sack
[D]And he had an old dog
that was trained to attack [G]sometimes
While he'd get drunk
and mean as a rattlesnake
[C]Never wasn't too much
[D]that he would take from a str[G]anger

[Pre-chorus 1]
I was [C]13 kids and a [D]bunch of dogs
A [G]house full of chickens and a [C]yard full of hogs
[D]I spent the summertime
[C]cuttin' up [D]logs for the [G]winter
[C]Tryin' like the devil to [D]find the Lord
[G]Working like a slave for my [C]room and board
[Am]Cold burning stoves, no natural gas
And if that ain't country, I'll kiss your [G]ass

[Chorus 1]
If that ain't [C]country, [D]it'll hair lift the pop[G]e
If that ain't [C]country, [D]it's a damn good jok[G]e
I've been on the [C]grand old [D]Opry
And [G]I know Johnny C[C]ash
And if he ain't [D]country,
I'll kiss your [G]ass

[Verse 5]
Well, my [G]mama sold eggs at a grocery store
And [C]my oldest sister was a first-rate whore
My [D]daddy said she couldn't come
home anymore, and he meant [G]it
Now, mama, she was old, far beyond her time
And her [C]hair was gray,
and I've seen her crying
She was [D]talking about Junior,
said he was dying in [G]prison

[Verse 6]
Why, she [G]told all the neighbors
he was off to the war
He was [C]fighting for courage,
he was [D]good to the core, and she was [G]proud
Now, our house
was a graveyard for automobile
[C]And around the porch
was a bunch of old wheels
And some [D]used Harley-Davidson parts
that we sold for [G]cash

[Pre-chorus 2]
There was [C]50 holes and an [D]old tin roof
[G]Me and my family was [C]living proof
And [Am]everybody called me old poor white trash
And if that ain't country, I'll kiss your [G]ass

[Chorus 2]
If that ain't [C]country, [D]it'll hair lift the pop[G]e
If that ain't [C]country, [D]it's a damn good jok[G]e
I've been on the [C]Grand Ole [D]Opry
And [G]I know Johnny C[C]ash, mmm
And if he ain't [D]country,
I'll kiss your [G]ass

[Outro 1]
And I'm [G]dreaming tonight of my [C]blue eyes
Con[D]cernin' the great speckled [G]birds
I didn't know God made honky-tonk [C]angels
And went [D]back to the to the wild side of [G]life
That a little late
