CI was raised on G7cornbread and Cgravy
And I slept in a G7cardboard box till I Cwas nearly G7three
CI bathed myself in the G7muddy river Crunning by our G7shack
By the Ctime that I had Freached thirteen I'd Cbeen through G7hell and Cback
FI've been thrown from G7pillar to post
I've been Fbanged around and Cscarred
I've done so much I've Fseen so much
And I've Clived so G7fast and Chard
Mama died when I G7was young and I Cnever knew my G7dad
CI never had the G7love and care that Cother G7children Chad
I spent five years in an G7orphan's home but CI ran off one G7day
And CI hoboed an Fold freight train to CSan FranG7cisco CBay
FI've fought in the war G7I've been in jail
FThere ain't much I ain't Cdone
I'd lived as much as Fany man
CBefore I was G7twenty Cone
FI've been thrown from G7pillar to post
I've been Fbanged around and Cscarred
I've done so much I've Fseen so much
And I've Clived so G7fast and Chard
