And what [F#] the chigger does, it jump on your leg
and lay a little baby on you now.
And then the mama jump off and leave the baby.
[F] You can't see him, the little tiny thing,
and then the baby start chewing on you.
And the baby chew on you for a few days and [G] then jump off.
And then you're gonna know something about itching.
And this song here gonna tell you what to do
if you ever get in chigger territory.

[C]
on the hottest cycle you [F] can, [D]
