Now Coleman's daddy pulled up in the yard He [E] said, back up your lives, kid, it's getting
too hard Kentucky's alright, but there's too many
people [A] Well, just the other day I thought I saw
a church sleeper Now Coleman said, Daddy, don't you worry
about me I'm gonna [E] stay here in Kentucky till the
day I die I'm gonna drink that sour milk
I'm gonna race that mare Yeah, [A] I got me a woman with a foxy red hair
Boy, y'all been moving west since the day you got married

Now Coleman's daddy said, what they're all coming to
[E] Young people these days are stubborn as mutes
You can't make them go, you're too old for that
Here's [A] that damn doe fiddling that boulder hat
Now Coleman's mama said, let the boy stay
[E] Cause he's raised up solid, he can find his own way
