They say he came out singing the moment he was born And he could pick that old flat top guitar like a farmer pickin' corn And he'd sneak in those old honky tonks until they'd kick him out And his daddy wonder how he learned all the stuff he sang about CHORUS He sang songs about dogs Songs about drinking Songs about mama's and trains Songs about heart broke country boys Standin' out in the rain Songs about dancehall beauty queens Worth geting into a fight Songs about nothing better to do Songs about saturday night When he turned 18 he went off to the war His sweetheart wrote him letters she said she'd wait for sure By the time he came back home, she was nowhere to be found So he packed his bags hit them honky tonks from town to town CHORUS Well everywhere he went, everybody knew his name But he never got the big hit, he stayed just the same And he moved back to the country when it was time to call it quits Now if you want to hear his music, you have to buy his greatest hits CHORUS x2 Tabbed by Andrew Magness [email protected]
