WHERE THE DEVIL DON'T STAY
E
E G
My Daddy played poker on a stump in the woods back in his younger days
A E
Prohibition was the talk, but the rich folks walked to the woods where my
Daddy stayed
E G
Jugs and jars from shiners, these old boys here, they ain't miners
A
They came from the twenty-niners
E
It didn't take a hole in the ground to put the bottom in their face
E, G, A, E
E, G, A, E
Back in the thirties when the dust bowl dried
And the woods in Alabama didn't see no light
My Daddy played poker by a hard wood fire
Squeezing all his luck from a hot copper wire
Scrap like a wildcat fights till the end
Trap a wildcat and take his skin
Deal from the bottom, put the ace in the hole
One hand on the jug but you never do know
D, A, C, G
D
Son come running
A
You better come quick
C G
This rotgut moonshine is making me sick
D A
Your Mama called the law and they're gonna take me away
C G
Down so far even the Devil won't stay
Where I call to the Lord with all my soul
I can hear him rattling the chains on the door
He couldn't get in I could see he tried
Through the shadows of the cage around the forty watt light
Daddy tell me another story
Tell me about the lows and the highs
