Somebody knockin' on my back door,
                 D9
Sayin' that's my rattlesnakin' daddy,

A                                  A7
I got a range in my kitchen, bakes bread nice and brown,
A                                          A7
Get my rattlesnakin' daddy, turn my damper upside down,
             D9
'Cause I'm a rattlesnakin' daddy,
             A                  A7
