¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
Odd tuning here. Sharp by about a quarter step. You'll get a feeling when you play along.
The break riff (marked just by G#) usually alternates between B5 G#5 and F#5 G#5. You'll hear it.
Couldn't find the lyrics anywhere. Any help is appreciated.
[Intro]

G#5
[Verse]
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
He come from east Texas in a beat up Ford
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Twelve gauge on the backseat, flask on the floor
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Rolling in the street for big city lives
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Don't a rebelling mind wanna get real time
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Got a job working for the Red Ball freight
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
I'm a rotten twenty one days off the rail
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Met a woman working on the dispatch line
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Not much longer took her for his bride
[Chorus]
D#5
Said "My daddy was a hellcat, son"
B5 C#5
He would bring the devil on the run
D#5 B5
Laid him in the ground before I grew up
C#5
Oh what have I done
[Break]
G#5 B5 C#5 B5 G#5 (x2)
G#5
[Verse]
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Not much longer six kids came along
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
And a rebellin' mind started rebellin' wrong
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Downtown drinking hard, out late night
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Wandering the halls of his house all night
[Chorus]
D#5
Said "My daddy was a hellcat, son"
B5 C#5
He would bring the devil on the run
D#5 B5
Laid him in the ground before I grew up
C#5
Oh what have I done
[Break]
G#5 B5 C#5 B5 G#5 (x2)
G#5
[Verse]
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
He made a ???? on Easter weekend
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
His wife and kids would never fear him again
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
In a roadhouse talkin' loud, talkin' tough
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Soon Bobby Lee and John had enough
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Started pushin' and a-shovin' and a-took him outside
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
In the gravel and the glow of the neon light
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
When a man took a lead pipe to his head
G#5 B5 C#5 G#5 B5 G#5
Knocked that old hellcat dead
[Chorus]
D#5
Said "My daddy was a hellcat, son"
B5 C#5
He would bring the devil on the run
D#5 B5
Laid him in the ground before I grew up
C#5
Oh what have I done
