Bread Line Band
Recorded by Mel Tillis
Written by Jimmy Chappell and Pat Bunch

G
Well bad times settle like fallin' rain
C G
And gloom settle on the land

Daddy said the bread line wad'nt gonna get him
A7 D7
And a formed a bread line band

G
Like a star in sight on a cloudy night
C G
It was a wonder to behold
C
Daddy took the threads that the Lord left over
D7 G
And spun 'em to a pot of gold

D7
There was a tambourine made of bottle caps
C G
And a pickle barrel hoop
D7
And a ladle beatin' hard on an upside kettle
C G
When the kettle wad'nt full of soup

D7
A washboard somebody found at the dump
C G
And two hot spoons and a pan
C
God laid a song on a troubled world
D7 G
When daddy formed the Bread Line Band


On Saturday night in patched up clothes
C G
We'd dress up spick and span

And all walk down to the hot soup line
A7 D7
To marvel at the bread line man

G
Where broken-tooth combs played home sweet home
C G
And daddy sang harmony
C
Not a penny to his name but he never complained
D7 G
And the song in his heart was free

Repeat #3,4,3,4
