Good Ole Boys Like Me
Recorded by Don Williams
Written by Bob McDill

G D7 C G C D7
When I was a kid Uncle Remus would put me to bed
G C G C D7
With a picture of Stonewall Jackson above my head
Em D7
Then Daddy came in to kiss his little man
Em D7
With gin on his breath and a Bible in his hand
C D7
He talked about honor and things I should know
C D7
Then he'd stagger a little as he went out the door

G C D7 C Am
I can still hear the soft southern winds in the live oak trees
D7 G C D7 C Am
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me Hank and Tenn-essee
C D7 Em
I guess we’re all gonna be what we’re gonna be
C D7 G
So what do you do with good ole boys like me

D7 C G C D7
Nothing makes a sound in the night like the wind does
G C G C D7
But you ain’t afraid if you’re washed in the blood like I was
Em D7
The smell of cape jasmine through the window screen
Em D7
John R. and the Wolfman kept me company
C D7
By the light of the radio by my bed
C D7
With Thomas Wolfe whispering in my head

Repeat #2

D7 C G C D7
When I was in school I ran with a kid down the street
G C G C D7
And I watched him burn himself up on bourbon and speed
Em D7
But I was smarter than most and I could choose
Em D7
Learned to talk like the man on the six o’clock news
C D7
When I was eighteen Lord I hit the road
C D7
But it really doesn't matter how far I go

Repeat #2

C D7 G
Yeah what do you do with good ole boys like me
