When I was a kid Un-cle Re-mus he put me to bed
With a pic-ture of Stone-wall Jack-son above my head
Then dad-dy came in to kiss his lit-tle man
With gin on his breath and a Bi-ble in his hand
He talked a-bout honor and things I should know
Then he stag-gered a lit-tle as he went out the door
I can still hear the soft south-ern winds
in the live oak trees
And those Wil-liams boys they still mean a lot to me
Hank and Ten-nes-see
I guess we're all gon-na be what we're gon-na be
So what do you do with good ole boys like me
Yeah what do you do with good ole boys like me
