Get A Little Dirt On Your Hands
Written and recorded by Bill Anderson
C F C
When I was a little boy my daddy used to say to me son
F C
We got a lotta big land and a lotta hard work to be done
F C
Go get your marbles put 'em in the house
G7 C
Tear down your castles in the sand
F C
Come with your pappy to the cotton patch
F Am
And get a little dirt on your hands
C Am
Get a little dirt on your hands boy
C Am
Get a little dirt on your hands
C F C
If you're gonna grow up to be a big big man
F C
You gotta get a little dirt on your hands
F C
You gotta get a little dirt on your hands
F C
Well I got to be twenty and I thought I was a pretty big wheel
F C
Left the country for the city met a slicker with a shady deal
F C
He said hold up the tavern take all the money
G7 C
Run as fast as you can
F C
If you're gonna get along in this big bad world
F Am
You gotta get a little dirt on your hands
Repeat #2
F C
Well it's four in the morning and the warden is a calling my name
F C
Says he's teaching me a lesson gonna send me out to work in the rain
F C
Dig that ditch boy chop that corn
G7 C
I gotta make you understand
F C
Only way to straighten out a guy like you
F Am
Is to get a little dirt on your hands
