Corn Liquor

Corn Liquor 
By Buck Owens
 
G
Well when I was a little bitty boy 
                        D7
No bigger than an old polecat
       G
Well I used to wonder like all kids 
     D7           G
What made this to that
 
 
Now I'd seen what happened to my pa 
                            D7
When he take a drink from a jug
          G
Yeah he'd start with a smile and then after awhile 
        D7                      G
He'd be out on the floor like a rug
 
     C           G
Corn liquor corn liquor 
                          D7
What makes you do what you do
          G
Well they feel no pain when you touch their brain 
     D7               G
Corn liquor they love you
 
 
Well now one day in the afternoon 
                       D7
My folks were away for awhile
       G
Yeah I got the jug down from the shelf 
       D7            G
To see what made 'em smile
 
 
Now I slowly sipped and I nearly flipped 
                   D7
That one drink was enough
        G
For the life of me I just can't see 
         D7              G
Why they love that awful stuff
 
repeat #2
 
 
Well as I grew older I thought about 
                      D7
That first sip that I had
       G
Yeah I really burned and soon I learned 
   D7              G
It wasn't all that bad
 
 
Now to ease the pressures of this world 
                           D7
Here's the way I've got it figured
         G
Well the thing to do for me and you 
         D7              G
Is drink lotsa good corn liquor
 
repeat #2
