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
