(I'm a Georgia native and there are absolutely no lyrics available for this song
anywhere. I had to listen to it over and over again and I'm iffy on quite a few lines.
Louisiana dialect aint my speciality. As for the chords I took some artistic liberty in
spicing them up since I'm probably the only person that'll ever use this. Feel free to
comment if
I messed up on the lyrics. I got the chords by strumming my banjo to the song and
finding what sounded good. The Solos are just something I wrote to be used with a blues slide
since they we're harmonica solo's in the original)
