G      D     C    G     C  D D7
When I was a kid Uncle Remus he put me to bed
    G     D     C    G    C  D
With a picture of Stonewall Jackson above my head
   Em            D
Then daddy came in to kiss his little man
   Em           D
With gin on his breath and a Bible in his hand
  C           D
He talked about honor and things I should know
     C           D         D7
Then he`d stagger a little as he went out the door
