Chicken On The Ground-crd

Billy Joe Shaver

 GC/G
        There's an old familiar hillside overlooking Emhouse,Texas
 GD
        Where i left some childhood memories layin' round
 GC/G
        I can almost hear the singing,i can still remember praying
 GDG
        At them old campground meetings eatin' chicken on the ground
Chorus:
 GDG
        With them hallelujahs ringin',everybody shoutin',singin'
 D
        Give me that old time religion,Jesus loves me,this i know
 GC/G
        When life was finger-lickin' good and God lived in our neighborhood
 GDC/G
        At them old campground meetin's eatin' chicken on the ground
Verse 2:
 GC/G
        I can still remember feelin' all that happiness inside me
 GD
        When i praised the Lord and laid my burdens down
 GC/G
        But that chicken must have tasted better than the word of God
 GDG
        'Cause it went slippin' through my fingers and rollin' on the ground
Chorus.
Verse 3:
 GC/G
        I reckon everyone of us can call back or remember
 GD
        When the taste and smell of youth was all around
 GC/G
        And i reckon in our own way everyone of us is payin' now
 GDG
        For eatin' chicken  and not listenin' to old Parson Brown
Chorus (x3).
