[Verse 1]
G F
He works way too much for way too little
G F
He drinks way too early 'til way too late
G F C
He hasn't had a raise since New Year's Day in '88
G F C
Gets trampled on by everyone 'cept when he comes in here
G F C
He's a product of the Haggard generation
G F C
He's got a redneck side when you get him agitated
G F C
He got the gold tooth look from a stiff right hook he's proud he too
G F C
For his right wing stand on Vietnam says he lost his brother there
Bb C
He yells out Johnny Cash and the band starts to play
Bb C D
Ring of Fire as he walks up and stands there by the stage... And he says
[Chorus]
G F C
uh-Hell yeah, uh-turn it up, uh-right on
G F C
uh-Hell yeah, uh-sounds good, sing that song
G F
Guitar man play it all night long
C
Take me back to where the music hit me
C
Life was good and love was easy.
