West Virginia Man--David Allan Coe

corrections welcome (especially with those lyrics; some are hard to hear).
INTRO: E A
A
I can plow the lower forty acres, feed the chickens, slap the hogs, fix the drainpipe
Pick the guitar and never lose no time
E A
Mow the grass, prune the peach trees, bend that dow stake that was broken by that
friend a mine
Still find time of an evenin' to go fishin on the river, put a fence around my land
E
Read a story to my baby I'm a West Virginia Man
A
I work in the sawmill 8 hours a day
E
Eat supper, read the paper put up a 100 bales of hay
A
Run off a batch of moonshine relax next to the fan
B A
Chew tabacco sing a firin' song I'm a West Virginia Man
E A
West Virginia man, alright
E A
I hear you, alright
BREAK
A
I can milk a hundred head of cattle, chop the firewood, shoe the horses, paint the barn
E
Pack the roof to make sure it won't leak, pick the beans sow some hayseed
A
Check the muskrat traps down by the creek
'Fore it gets late I can pick a pack of apples that my woman wants to can
E
Take my youngest son our huntin' I'm a West Virginia man
A
Work in the sawmill 8 hours a day
E
Eat supper, read the paper, put up a hundred bales of hay
A
Run off a batch of moonshine relax next to the fan
B A
Chew tobacco sing a firin' song I'm a West Virginia man
E A
West Virginia man, alright
E A
Ahhh, well alright
E A
Ahhh, alright
E A
I hear ya now, alright
E A
Have mercy, alright
