Intro:  G/  A7/  C-  Cm/ G  
GI don’t own no three-piece sA7uits
Some old jeans and a new pair of bCoots
A clean shirt, that’s dCmressed enough for mGe
GDon’t own no new CadilA7lac
I drive a truck with a dog in the bCack
I got ‘em both iCmn 200G3
Got an old guiEmtar DI leGarned how to pAlay
I ain’t Merl HEmaggard aDnd I aGin’t George StrAait
                             C        Cm      G/    A7/  C-   Cm/ G  
But I’m close enough for the girls I date.
GSix pack and a box of red wA7ine
Barbeque and a bag of pork rCinds
A can of  worms and Cmtwo fishing pGoles
GLakeside with the tailgate dA7own
Nobody for miles aroCund
We’ll jump in if it aCmin’t too cGold
SEmome giDrls will prGobably sAay
That’s not rEmomantic, wDell mGaybe it aAin’t
But it’s clCose enough for the Cmgirls I dGate
DI’m just an oCrdinary sGouthern man
NobDody’s gonna chCange me ‘cause I Gam what I am
DWanna find a gCirl and settle dGown some dEmay

GShe might be a blonde or brA7unette
Not sure ‘cause I ain’t found her yCet
Aww but there’s Cmone thing I kGnow
GWe’re gonna live way back in the wA7oods
No neighbors, no neighborhCood
Dead end on an Cmold dirt roGad

The closest tEmown’s D30 mGiles awAay
But that’s clCose enough for the gCmirls I dGate
