Key: A
Introduction:
A D
On a rainy,windy morning that's the day that i was born on
A E
In the old sharecroppers one room country shack
A D
They say my mammy left me,same day that she had me
A E A
Said she hit the road and never once looked back
A D
And i just thought i'd mention,my Grandma's old age pension
A E
Is the reason why i'm standing here today
A D
I got all my country learning,living and a churning
A E A
Pickin' cotton,rasin' hell,and bailin' hay
A D
I've been to Georgia on a fast train honey
A E
I wudn't born no yesterday
A D
Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education
A E A
Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
A D
And now sweet Caroline,i don't guess i'll ever find
A E
Another woman put together like you all
A D
With your wiggle and your walkin',and your big city talkin'
A E A
Your brand new shiny Plymouth rag-top car
A D
Yeah it's hurry up and wait,in this world of give and take
A E
Seems like haste makes for waste every time
A D
And i pray to my soul,when you hear those ages roll
A E A
You better know i'm gonna get my share of mine
Chorus.(x2)
A E A
Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
