Em                     G
Back Upon an old dirt road

Next to a swamp full of toads

was a slanted wood shack 
      C            D           Em
with three little kids and a momma

Em            G
papa died in '63
A
left little jenny and me
                       C
to plant those 'taters and

Little brother was never quite right
A
he used to sit on the floor in the sunlight

playin with the dust 
       C            D             Em
that danced on the beams in the window

Em                       G
sister had to cook and clean
A
cuz momma she got sick and lean
                       C             D           Em  -D....Chorus

little brother he was taken away
                       C           D         Em
sister, she married a soldier and lives in Toledo

Em                        G
And me I'm in a Nashville bar
