A
Turpentine and dandelion wine
     A7                     D
I've turned the corner, I'm doin' fine
D                            A
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line
E                          A
Pickin' them off with this gun o' mine
         D                     A
I got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head
        E                           A
Growing higher and higher 'till I'm dead

A
Sister Sue she's short and stout
    A7                       D
She didn't grow up, she grew out
D                                  A
Mama thinks she's plain, but she's just being kind
E                                  A
Papa thinks she's pretty, but he's almost blind
   D                        A
We don't let her out much except at night
    E                           A
But I don't care 'cause I'm all right

          A                       D            A
O-ho, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
        A                       E 
And the young folks roll on the floor
        A                       D            A
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
     A                E           A
Keep them hard times away from my door

A
Brother Gene, he's big and mean
       A7                 D
And he don't have much to say
D                         A
Got a little woman who he whooped each day
E                   A
But now she's gone away
    D                        A
Got drunk last night, kicked mama down the stairs
    E                         A
But I'm all right, so I don't care


        A                       D            A
O-ho, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
        A                       E 
And the young folks roll on the floor
        A                       D            A
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
     A                E           A
Keep them hard times away from my door

A

        E                           A
Growing higher and higher 'till I'm dead
