歌词
[Verse 1]
Turpentine and dandelion wine
I've turned the corner and I'm doin' fine
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line
Pickin' 'em off with this gun o' mine
I got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head
Goin' higher and higher until I'm dead
[Verse 2]
Sister Sue, she's short and stout
She didn't grow up, she grew out
Mama says she's plain, but she's just bein' kind
Papa thinks she's pretty but he's almost blind
And they don't let her out much, except at night
But I don't care 'cause I'm alright
[Verse 3]
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
And the young folks roll on the floor
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Keep them hard times away from my door
[Verse 4]
Brother Gene, he's big and mean
And he don't have much to say
He had a little woman who he whooped each day
But now she's gone away
Got drunk last night, kicked Mama down the stair
But I'm alright, so I don't care
[Verse 5]
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
And the young folks roll on the floor
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
Keep them hard times away from my door
[Verse 6]
Turpentine and dandelion wine
I've turned the corner and I'm doin' fine
Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line
Pickin' 'em off with this gun o' mine
I got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head
Goin' higher and higher until I'm dead
