D

Well, my name's John Lee Peddimore.

G C

Now, the revenue man wanted granddaddy bad.

D

Headed up the holler with everything he had.

G C

Before my time, but I've been told.

D

You never come back from Copperhead Road.

D

Now daddy ran whisky in a big block Dodge.

G C

Then the sheriff came around in the middle of the night.

D

Heard momma crying that something wasn't right.

G C

He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load.

D

You could smell the whisky burning down Copperhead Road.

D

I volunteered for the army on my birthday.

G C

Now the D.E.A.'s got a chopper in the air.

D

I wake up screaming like I'm back over there.

G C

I learned a thing or two from Charley, don't you know.

D

You better stay away from Copperhead Road.
