Acid Country Tim Wilson
Verse 1
Ma[G]ma made us listen to Pink Floyd and Floyd Kr[C]amer.
We had th[G]ree square meals of mushrooms and cornb[D]read.
Mama's kit[G]chen smelled a lot like inscents and cathead b[C]iscuits.
We'd watch Po[G]rter and Dolly and thr[D]ow on the Grateful De[G]ad.
Chorus 1
Born and ra[C]ised on, Acid C[G]ountry
Eatin' turnip greens and a handful of Nemb[D]utal
Yeah dad[G]dy couldn't take it he had to go
You can't[C] play Hendrix on a banjo
Mama "wal[G]ked the floor" and laid "ano[D]ther brick in the wa[G]ll"
Verse 2
O[G]ur heroes were Roy Acuff and Abby Ho[C]ffman
We grew u[G]p outside of Woodstock Tenne[D]ssee
Listenin' to Far[G]ron Young and a side of Inna Godda Dav[C]ida
Mama ma[G]de a well rounded ou[D]tcast out of m[G]e
Chorus 2
Born and rai[C]sed on acid cou[G]ntry
Ea[G]tin' cold ham hocks and a handful of Placi[D]dyl
Yeah dad[G]dy couldn't take it he had to go
Playin Al[C]ice Cooper on a dobro
Wearin' le[G]ather hip huggers and wor[D]kin in the cotton mil[G]ls
Bridge:
And "if you[C] don't eat your meat you can't have any pu[G]dding"
And son your "walkin' on the Fightin' side of [D]me"
Yeah "excu[G]se me while I kiss the sky", "I [C]shot a man in Reno just to watch him die"
And Chet A[G]dkins playin' the gu[D]itar on the M[G]TV
Ohh Ooo Ohh
Chorus 3
Born and rai[C]sed on, Acid Countr[G]y
Makin' "smoke on the water" sound a lot like "Uncle P[D]en"
And dad[G]dy couldn't take it he had to go
You can't mi[C]x Deep Purple with Bill Monroe roe roe hey!
And "sunsh[G]ine of your lo[D]ve" while yodeli[G]ng.
