Biography:
Alvis Edgar Owens, Jr. (August 12, 1929 – March 25, 2006), better known as Buck Owens, was an American singer and guitarist who had 21 No. 1 hits on the Billboard country music charts with his band, the Buckaroos. They pioneered what came to be called the Bakersfield sound—a reference to Bakersfield, California, the city Owens called home and from which he drew inspiration for what he preferred to call American music.
While Owens originally used fiddle and retained pedal steel guitar into the 1970s

Well when I was a little bitty boy
D7
No bigger than an old polecat
G
Well I used to wonder like all kids
D7 G
What made this do that
N.C.
Now I'd seen what happened to my pa
D7
When he take a drink from a jug
G
Yeah he'd start with a smile and then after awhile
D7 G
He'd be out on the floor like a rug
C G
Corn liquor corn liquor
D7
What makes you do what you do
G
Well they feel no pain when you touch their brain
D7 G
Corn liquor they love you
N.C.
Well now one day in the afternoon
D7
My folks were away for awhile
G
Yeah I got the jug down from the shelf
D7 G
To see what made 'em smile
N.C.
Now I slowly sipped and I nearly flipped
D7
That one drink was enough
G
For the life of me I just can't see
D7 G
Why they love that awful stuff
N.C.
Well as I grew older I thought about
D7
That first sip that I had
G
Yeah I really burned and soon I learned
D7 G
It wasn't all that bad
N.C.
Now to ease the pressures of this world
D7
Here's the way I've got it figured
G
Well the thing to do for me and you
D7 G
Is drink lotsa good corn liquor
