[Intro]

[Verse]
A
Lord I swear the perfume you wear
A
Was made out of turnip greens
A
And every time I kiss you girl
A7
It tastes like pork and beans
D
Even though you're wearin' them
D
Citified high heels
A
I can tell by your giant step
A7
You been walkin' through the cotton fields
[Chorus]
E D7 A
Oh, you're so down home girl
[Verse]
A
Your shoes are green, your dress is red
A
And your wiggy head is powder blue
A
But underneath all that mess,
A7
Well you're still the same old messy you
D
You're sittin there in that fancy chair
Just drinkin' champagne like a movie star
A
When ya oughta be sittin' on a sidewalk
Drinkin' white lightnin'
A7
Out of a jelly jar
[Chorus]
E D7 A
Oh, you're so down home girl
[Verse]
A
Every time you monkey child
A
You take my breath away
A
And every time you move like that
A7
I gotta get down and pray
D
Don't you know that dress you're wearing
Is made out of fiberglass
A
And every time you move like that
A7
I gotta go to Sunday mass
[Chorus]
E D7 A
Oh, you're so down home girl
[Verse]
A
I'm gonna take you to the muddy river
A
And push you in
A
Just to watch the water roll on
A7
Down your velvet skin
D
I'm gonna take you back to New Orleans
Down in Dixieland
A
I'm gonna watch you do the second line
A7
With an umbrella in your hand
[Chorus]
E D7 A
Oh, you're so down home girl
[Outro]
