David Allan Coe 
If That Ain't Country (Part 2)
Capo1

A 	  	  	  	  	   D
Well I’m just an old man now, was with scars
 	  	  	  	  	  E
Most of them I got fightin’ in them redneck bars
 	  	  	  	          A
And a bunch of new tattoos Squench put on me
 	  	  	  	       D
Why he covered up the ones I got years ago
      	  	  	  	 E
Back in prison when I was just Dave Coe
 	  	  	  	 A
And I wasn’t famous then, and I wasn’t free
 	  	  	  	  	   D
Well I grew up in a three room run down shack
 	  	  	  	  	 E
At the foot of a mountain by a railroad track
 	  	  	  	  	    A
Where decent folk don’t go when the sun goes down
 	  	  	  	  	  	 D
Now daddy work the coal mines and he worked on cars
 	  	  	  	  	  E
And momma’d go to church and daddy’d go to bars
 	  	  	  	  	  	 A
An most folks just called it the hillbilly part of town

A 	  	  	  	  D
We had a 55 Chevy when I was fifteen
 	  	  	           E
I painted it red but I was still green
 	  	  	  	 A
S**t I couldn’t even afford to buy gas
 	  D 	  	  E
I had a 410 rifle and a Bowie knife too
A 	  	        D 	     
Redman tobacco that I liked to chew
    E 	  	  	  	  	   
And we’d count the car when the train when past
 	  	  	  	  	     A
And If That Ain’t Country, I’ll Kiss Your Ass 

Chorus:
 	       D        E                   A
If That Ain’t Country, it'll hair lip the pope
              D        E                A
If That Ain’t Country, it's a damn good joke
  	  	   D         E
I’ve been on The Grand Ole Opry,
A             D
I know Johnny Cash
 	  	  E         	 A
And If He Ain’t Country, What?


A 	  	  	  	  	 D
Now one of my sisters was a lady of the night
 	  	  	      E
And then one day she saw the light
 	  	  	  	  	 A
Now she don’t do those things that she used to do
 	  	  	  	     D
She never made the funeral when daddy died
 	  	  	  	  	 E
An I said I’d forgive her but I guess I lied
 	  	  	  	     A
There’s just no way to hide the way I feel
 	  	  	  	  	 D
Now me and my brother took our sister Diane 
 	  	  	  	  	  E
Down to the funeral home to see the old man
 	  	  	  	  	  	 A
Jimmy was the oldest and Diane was the youngest one
 	  	  	  	    D
Now Ray was in the middle and there was me
 	  	  	    E
And I’m the one at twenty-three 
 	  	  	  	   A
Who grew up to be that Yankee’s rebel son
 	  	  	  	  	  D
Now times are changin’ I’ve heard folks say
 	  	  	  	  	  E
It’s been ten years since my daddy past away
 	  	  	  	         A
But I can still picture him in his overalls
 	  	  	              D
Covered with grease from his head to his feet
 	  	  	    E  	  	        A
Cussin' the sweat and the Texas heat, and mesquiters
 
A 	  	  	  	  	     D
Standin’ by the house where he made his deals
 	  	  	  	           E 	  	 
And around the porch was a bunch of old wheels
 	  	  	  	  	  	     A
And a couple Harley Davidson parts daddy sold for gas
 	    D                        E
There was fifty holes in an old tin roof
A 	  	  	  D
Me and my family we was livin' proof
E
A perfect example of poor white trash
 	  	  	  	  	     A
And If That Ain’t Country, I’ll Kiss Your Ass 

Chrous2:
              D 	         E 	  	     A
If That Ain’t Country, it'll hair lip the pope
              D        E                A
If That Ain’t Country, it's a damn good joke
            D         E
Been on The Grand Ole Opry,
    A 	           D
And I know Johnny Cash
          E 	  	 A
And If He Ain’t Country, What?
                  E 	  	   A
And If That Ain’t Country, What?
                  E 	  	   A
And If That Ain’t Country, What?
