Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Em]Yes, some were teethed
on a [D]silver spoon
[Em]With a star hung high for [D]a rattle
[Em]People I was teethed like the[D]
[Em]black raccoon
As instruments [D]of [Em]battle.
For I was born on Sat[D]urday,
[Em]A bad time to plant your see[D]d.
[Em]The only thing m[D]y father said,
[Em]Another mouth to f[D]eed.[Em][D][G][Em]
When I was born, [D]oh, the rain fell hard
An[Em]d misery piled high round
[D]my mama's door
[Em]The first two word[D]s that I ever cried
[Em]Were hungry [D]and [Em]more[D][Em]
For I was born on Sat[D]urday,
[Em]a bad time to plant your see[D]d
An[Em]d the only thing my [D]mama said,
[Em]another mo[A]uth to fee[D]d[Em]
For I'm the brother [D]to the Black Raccoon
An[Em]d the kin to all things wi[D]ld
An[Em]d the only thing God[D] said to me,
[Em]Boy, your [D]Saturday is chil[Em]d
For some were teased on [D]a silver spoon
[Em]With a star hung high for [D]a rattle
[Em]People I [D]was teasing,
[Em]like [D]the black raccoon,
[Em]As i[D]nstruments of battle.[Em]
For I was born [D]on Saturday
[Em]A bad time to plant yo[D]ur seed
An[Em]d the only thing tha[D]t they said to[Em] me
[D]Bye [Em]for[D][Em]
