C G7 C
Well I grew up wild and free
G7 C G7 C
Walking these fields in my bare feet
G7 C
There wasn't no place I couldn't go
G7 C G7 C
With a 22 rifle and a fishing pole
F C G7 C
Well I live in the city but don't fit in
Am G7 C
You know it's a pity the shape I'm in
F C G7 C
But I got no home and I got no choice
Am G7 C
Oh Lord have mercy on a country boy
G7 C
When I was young I remember well
G7 C G7 C
I'd hunt the wild turkey and the bob white quail
G7 C
The river was clear and deep back then
G7 C G7 C
Had fishing lines tied to the willow limb
Repeat #2
G7 C
Well they dammed the river they dammed the stream
G7 C G7 C
They cut down the cypress and sweet-gum trees
G7 C
There's a Laundromat and a barber shop
G7 C G7 C
And now the whole meadow is a parking lot
Repeat #2
