[Intro]
Em

[Verse 1]
    Em             A           
Sometimes I wonder where my next 
               Em
dollar gonna come from
Em                  A            
Keep my head up and something 
              Em
falls out of the sky
Em                          
Daddy taught me how to use my 
  A              Em
bootstraps and carry on
        G                   D     
He said God will be good to you 
         A
son if you try

[Interlude]
Em

[Verse 2]
      Em                       A  
Uncle Sam comes around getting 
                Em
both hands in your pocket
Em                    A          
People out there just barely are 
        Em
gettin' by
Em          A                    
Render unto Caesar no more than 
   Em
you got to

         G                      D 
Keep the Lord in your heart and 
               A
keep your powder dry

[Chorus]
                    Em
But do your good in mean time
                          A        
While you're waiting on a good 
  G             Em
time, draw the line

[Verse 3]
          Em                      
Well, you might wanna think about 
A                  Em
getting yourself a shotgun
    Em                      A     
You might wanna think about 
               Em
growing you a garden patch
    Em                       A    
You might have to go out and shoot
               Em
 something and drag it home
          G                D      
But don't never count your 
              A
chickens before they hatch

[Chorus]
                    Em
But do your good in mean time
                          A        
While you're waiting on a good 
  G             Em
time, draw the line

A  G  Em  x2

[Verse 4]
      Em                      
Well, I'm pretty sure that the 
 A                      Em
government ain't gonna save you
    Em                  A         
The good lord helps the ones that 
         Em
help themselves
          Em                    A 
You wanna stand on your own two 
                Em
feet and use some backbone
         G                D   
Don't go crawling on your knees 
              A
begging for help

[Chorus]
                    Em
But do your good in mean time
                          A        
While you're waiting on a good 
  G             Em
time, draw the line
             A          G      
Yeah, in the mean time, draw the 
       Em
line
