[D]ME AND BILLY JO[G]E AND MATY BET[D]H
WERE RAISED UP ON THE PAT[A]H OF RIGHTEOUSNES[D]S
MADE A SOLEMN VOW THAT [G]WE'D ALWAYS BE CLOS[D]E
AND NEVER WANDER FA[A]R FROM SAWMILL ROA[D]D
AS THE YEARS WENT BY, THE [G]WORLD BEGAN TO CHANG[D]E
ONE BY ONE WE OUTGRE[A]W THOSE CHILDHOOD GA[D]MES
MOMMA COOKED AND CLEANED AMD [G]WORRIED ABOUT OUR SOU[D]LS
WE GOT INTO BEER AND [A]CARS AND ROCK AND ROL[D]L
CHOURUS
WE KNEW [G]JESUS WAS THE ANSWER, AND [D]ELVIS WAS THE KING
"BLUE SUEDE SH[A]OES" AND "ROCK OF AGES" WERE THE [G]SONGS WE LEARNED TO SIN[D]G
[G]INNOCENSE WENT OUT OF STYLE AND [D]WE JUST WATCHED IT G[G]O
[D]YESTERDAY GOT LEFT BENEATH, THE DUS[A]T OF SAWMILL R[D]D

BILLY [D]JOE WENT TO SIAGO[G]N FOR UNCLE SA[D]M
NOW I GO TO SEE HIM, HE [A]DON'T KNOW WHO I A[D]M
ONCE A YEAR I GET A [G]CARD FROM MARYBET[D]H
SHE'S WITH HUSBAND NUMBER FO[A]UR SOMEWHERE OUT W[D]EST
I STILL LIVE IN THIS OLD [G]HOUSE WHERE WE WERE RAISE[D]D
ON THIS DIRT ROAD THE COUN[A]TY NEVER PAI[D]VED
NOW, I WATCH MY KIDS AND [G]WORRY ABOUT THEIR SOUL[D]S
AND PRAY THEY'LL NEVER WANDER F[A]AR FROM SAWMILL RO[D]AD
