G D7
My Daddy used to tan my hide, Out Behind the Barn
G
He taught me to be dignified Out Behind the Barn
C
When he took his strap to me
G
And turned me down across his knee
D7 G
He sure missed up my dignity, Out Behind the Barn
cho
G D7
I got my education Out Behind the Barn
G
I ain't a foolin' no sir-eeee
D7
Passed each examination Out Behind the Barn
G
And it almost made a man out of me
G D7
I smoked my first cigarette Out Behind the Barn
G
And that's one day I won't forget Out Behind the Barn
C
I got sick you should have seen
G
How that tobacco turned me green
D7 G
I almost died of nicotine Out Behind the Barn
G D7
I met a pretty girl one day Out Behind the Barn
G
She wanted me to stay and play Out Behind the Barn
C
She taught me to kiss and pet
G
That's a game I can't forget
D7 G
Cause we still play that same game yet Out Behind the Barn
cho
G D7
I'm glad that I can go again Out Behind the Barn
G
And do the things that I did then Out Behind the Barn
C
Now you might think it ain't no fun
G
To be a poor ole farmers son
D7 G
You don't know what all I've done Out Behind the Barn
G D7
I got my education Out Behind the Barn
G
and it made a better man out of me,
D7 G
and it almost made a wreck out of me.
