I got a house on stilts, a five dollar bill
E

B7
Lot better than the streets of crowded cars
E
Pawn shops, friendly neighborhood bars
E
Ah but your mama and your papa won't let me come courtin'
B7 E
They says I can't make a good livin' for their child
E
Ah but the fish bites good, the crawfish are plenty
B7 E
Gonna make a lot of money when I take a city bride
E B7
I got a paint can't run, your pappy's got a big dog
E
Snappin' at my heels, get away you mangy hound
E B7
Light's still burning, and the ladder by the window
E
Take a chance gonna make another round
E
Ah but your mama and your papa won't let me come courtin'
B7 E
They says I can't make a good livin' for their child
E
Ah but the fish bites good, the crawfish are plenty
B7 E
Gonna make a lot of money when I take a city bride
E

B7 E
They says I can't make a good livin' for their child
E
Ah but the fish bites good, the crawfish are plenty
B7 E
Gonna make a lot of money when I take a city bride
