[Verse 1]
Gm
Lucas was a redneck through and through
Gm
Drinkin' and fightin' was all the boy knew
Gm
Born with a corncob in his mouth
Gm
In Tupelo Mississippi way down south
    C7
His daddy died drunk with a belly fulla rum
C7 / D7                                      D7*
His  mama died waitin' for a miracle to come

[Verse 2]
Gm
Hangin' around with the rest of the riff-raff
Gm
Down at the pool hall on Main Street
Gm
Wearin' a red bandana and a sweaty ol' straw hat
Gm
Union-All coveralls, dirty bare feet
C7
One half stupid and the other half dumb
D7                                            D7*
Born to live and die in a sharecropper's slum

[Bridge]
    C
Now who's gonna cry when ya die, Lucas
C7                              C7 / D7
Who's gonna miss ya when you're      gone
   C7                   C9  C7              C9
Or will it be the black man you call the nigger

C7                 C9    C7                     C7 / D7
