Country Ghetto
By JJ Grey and Mofro
Whole Song is  D   F  G... (from a live version they had an Ab to G vamp to end it)
DI see the look in your Feyes I know I'm Gsimple and plain
DA country boy can't survive tFoo many wGays in your game
DSo you can say what you wFill about your hGelping hand
DI know I'll never be Fmore than just your Gdumb white traDsh
FLife in a Gcountry ghetto D4x
Love touches us all yes we're black and we're white
Out here in the cut still living side by side
So never mind what you've seen and just forget what you've heard
Another ignorant redneck just some Hollywood words
Life in a country ghetto  4x
No I'm not tame  The only voice that speaks for me speaks from this clay
Little boy you ain't never take a dime from the man
Starve to death before you live by a government handout
They call us poverty
Life in a country ghetto 4x
