Simple song with simple chords in STANDARD TUNING.
Okay before the chords and lyrics there will be a simple way to play the
intro type thing that is actually a banjo. THE CHORD STRUCTURES IN THE
TAB WILL NOT DISPLAY STRUMMING SO ITS EASY ON ME.
SINCE THERE ARE NO TABS FOR THIS BAND I MUST PROVIDE A LINK TO THEM SO
IT IS www.carolinachocolatedrops.com and THAT IS THEIR OFFICIAL WEBSITE

[Chorus]
G C
Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table
D G
Eating them beans and making love as long as I am able
G C
Growing corn and cotton too and when the day is over
D G
Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over
G C
Goodbye don't you cry I'm going to Louisiana
D G
Buy a coon dog and a big fat hog and marry Suzianna.
G C
Same song ding dong I'll take a trip to China
D G
Cornbread and butterbeans and back to North Carolina.

Wearin' shoes and drinkin' booze goes against the Bible.

A necktie will make you die and cause you lots of trouble

Streetcars and whiskey bars and kissing pretty women

Women yeah that's the end of a terrible beginning

[Verse 2]
G C
I can't read and don't care and education is awful
D G
Raisin' heck and writing checks it ought to be unlawful
G C
Silk hose and frilly clothes is just a waste of money
D G
Come with me and stay with me and say you'll be my honey
[Chorus]
