     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


Verse 2:
     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


Verse 3:
     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


Verse 4:
     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
