Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]Turpentine and dandelion wine
I've turned the corner and I'm
[G]doin' [D]fine
[G]Shootin' at the birds on
the [D]telephone line
[A]Pickin' 'em off with this gun [D]of mine
I got a [G]fire in the belly and a
[D]fire in my head
Goin' higher and [A]higher till I'm [D]dead

[Verse 2]
Sister [A]Sue, short [D]and stout
And she didn't grow up, she [G]grew [D]out
[G]Papa says she's plain but
she's [D]just bein' kind
[A]Mama says she's pretty but
she's al[D]most blind
And they [G]don't let her out much
[D]'cept at night
But I don't [A]care 'cause I'm all [D]right

[Verse 3]
The sun shines bright [D]on my
[G]old Kentucky [D]home
And the young folks roll on
[A]the floor[E][A][G]
[A]The sun [G]shines [D]bright [Em]on
[D]my [G]old Kentucky [D]home
Keep them hard times [G]a
[Abdim]way from [A]my door[D][A]

[Verse 4]
[D]Brother Gene, [A]he's big [D]an d mean
And he didn't have much [G]to say[D]
He [G]had a little woman that he
[D]whupped each day
And [A]now she's gone away
[D]He got [G]drunk last night,
[D]kicked mama down the stairs
I'm all [A]right, I don't [D]care

[Verse 5]
The sun shines [D]bright on my
[G]old Kentucky [D]home
And the young folks roll on
[A]the floor[E][A][G]
[A]The sun shines [D]bright [Em]on
[D]my [G]old Kentucky [D]home
Keep them hard times a [Abdim]way from [A]my door[D]
