Standard (EADGBE)

Put a dead cat on the railroad tracks,

the Wolf-bains blooming by the tressels.

Get the eyeball of a rooster and the stones from a ditch

and wash 'em down with bilge water and say you'll never snitch.

Take the buttons from a yellow jacket, the feather from a buzzard.

The blood from the bounty hunters cold black heart.

Catch the tears of a widow in a thimble made of glass.

Tell your Mama and your Papa they can kiss your ass.

Poison all the water in the wishin' well

and hang all them scarecrows from a sycamore tree.

Burn down all them honeymoons put 'em in a pillow case

and wait next to the switch blades at the amusement park for me.

Strangle all the Christmas carolers, scratch out all the prayers.

Tie 'em up with barbed wire and push 'em down the stairs.

I'll whittle you a pistol for keepin' nightmares off your blinds.

Those sons 'o bitches always seem to sneak up from behind.

Syphon all the gas from your Daddys pick-up truck.

Fill up Johnnys T-Bird, I got a couple bucks.

Put on a little perfume, rap a ribbon in your hair.

Careful that you don't wake up the hounds.

Tear a bolt of lightning off the side of the sky.

Throw it in the cedar chest, if you want I'll tell you why.

Bring the gear shift knob from a 49 Merc.

Ly down here beside me and let me hold you in the dirt.

You're gonna tremble, tear the throat out of the night.

Sink your teeth into my shoulder, dig your nails into my back.

Tell that little girl to let go of my sleeve.

You'll be a woman when I catch you, come baby fall in love with me.

With my double barrel shotgun, a whole box of shells,

we'll celebrate the 4th of July.

We'll do a 100 mph spendin' someone elses dough.

Drive all the way to Reno on the wrong side of the road.

On the wrong side of the road. The wrong side of the road.

The wrong side of the road.

Bap doo da, bap doo da. Bap doo da, bap doo da.

etc.

There's a bit more going on in this song than is written here such as

? to to & ? to to & to

and such but this should help as a starter.

Constructive criticism, correction and/or rating is appreciated. Enjoy!
