JACKY DON TUCKER
Toby Keith
(Keith/Cannon)
1997, Mercury Nashville
Capo II Fret
AJacky Don Tucker was my daddy's little brother
And at Eseventeen he jumped the fence
He joined a F#mrock 'n' roll band, got a tattoo on his hand
DGranny said he never had a E7lick of sense
'Cause by the Atime he turned seven he was a stealin' watermelons
Playin' Ehouse with the girl next door
Drinkin' F#mmuscadine wine by the time he was nine
Sneakin' Dout and smokin' cigarettes un E7der the porch
He was a Dmelon stealin'
Cop-a-feelin'
Daredevil fool
A Ado-it-anywayin'
Playin' hooky from school
A B7water tower poet class of '73
He'd say by EGod you better know it if you're runnin' with me
'Cause I'm Dskinny dippin' finger flippin' son of a gun
(No Chord) Play by the rules
You're gonna Emiss all the fun
He was Aalways drag racin' and he kept the sheriff chasin'
But they Enever caught ole Jacky Don
'Cause he was F#mnobody's fool, the definition of cool
He Deven cut a donut on the E7courthouse lawn
He Acreated quite a scandal that the locals couldn't handle
When he Etook up with the preacher's baby girl
They bought a F#mnew double wide and on their wedding night
Aunt DJenny went to rockin'
Uncle E7Jacky Don's world
He was a Dmelon stealin'
Cop-a-feelin'
Daredevil fool
A Ado-it-anywayin'
