E7Now, when I was just a little boy, standin' to my Daddy's knee, D D7
E7My poppa said, "Son, don't let the man get you
Do what he done to me." D D7
E7'Cause he'll get you, 'cause he'll get you now, now.
E7And I can remember the fourth of July,
Runnin' through the backwood, bare. D D7
E7And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin',
Chasin' down a hoodoo there.
