Belle Meade Cockfight chords

[Intro]
D
 
 
[Verse 1]
D
Well we don't fight bulls and we don't race horses
D
And we don't give a damn what the fed enforces
        A
But the good Lord taught us wrong from right
A
And it ain't no sin one little old cockfight
G
Pull up the truck to the pen in the yard
                     D
Big left turn on the boulevard
          G
Round the bend the barn backdoor
                                D
Two chalk lines on the old dirt floor
A
Grab old Red and spur him tight
A
Bill 'em up boys let the bidding fly

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



A
It's beak to beak and it's eye to eye
D N.C.                                    D
We found love at the Belle Meade cockfight
 
 
[Verse 2]
D
I thought my heart knew everything
D
'Til I saw you across that fighting ring
    A
One look from you is all I need
A
Now we're one cockfighting family
D        G
Cut that comb and dub them wattles
                               D
Shine that gaff all inch and a quarter
            G
Meet in the middle of the pit if you dare
                             D
Watch them spurs and hackles flare
A
Kiss my bird and let her fly
A
Swing your cocks on up to the sky
A
Handlers watch don't let 'em die
D N.C.
We found love at the Belle Meade cockfight

[Verse 3]
D
Well I love my bird like I love my wife
D
It's in our blood this way of life
        A
And the only fun our youngins need
A
Is Saturday night in the old Belle Meade
   D                        G
So take your corner chicken man
                            D    G
And may the bravest chicken win
D              G
It's blood and beer on Saturday night
                                  D
Come Sundays morning it's chicken pie
   A
So grab old Red and spur 'em tight
A
Bill 'em up boys let the bidding fly
A
It's beak to beak and it's eye to eye
D N.C.                                D
We found love at the Belle Meade cockfight
