[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]July the 12th sure was [A]a scorcher
[Em][Asus4][A][Em][A]
Mama, [Em]she [A]fixed some lemon[Em]ade
Sister Beth was sunning in [A]the sun
[Em]shine[A][Em][A]
And baby [Asus4]Corey was
playing [D]in [Em]the shade

[Verse 2]
[Em]I looked up the road
And yonder comes a [A]big car
[Em][A][Em][A]
Something [Em]we d[Asus4]on't see
much [A]around [Em]here
Big man said, [E]son,
[Em]where's your pappy[A][Em][A][Em]
[A]Said, he's over in [Em]the cornf[Asus4]ield
Not [D]far from [Em]here

[Verse 3]
[Em]They started talking over by the
[A]rail [Em]fence[A][Em][A]
It looked like Papa [Asus4]was
[A]getting [Em]mad
They walked [E]to the house and
[Em]papa was [A]crying[Em][A]
Papa [Em]never [A]cried and I knew
it was [Em]bad
[A]

[Verse 4]
[F]
Two [Bb]week[F]s later in the
Logan [Bb]courthouse
Raining cats and dogs out[F]side[Fm][F]
Sure was awful the way mama was [Bb]crying
She says she thought that
woman had lied
[F][Fm][F]

[Verse 5]
Papa said, Judge
We tried to raise up a [Bb]good boy
From a little bitty [F]tot[Fm][F]
Jody'd never go against
Of what a woman [Bb]wishes
That kinda boy we know
that he's not
[F][Bb]

[Verse 6]
[F]
You know the power of the almighty [Bb]dollar
Will come out the winner every [F]time
That Willie Buchanan done got
away with [Bb]something
They're trying to blame
on the boy of mine
[F]
