G You know ol Earle Byrd down round Mexia G Friscos the closest town G Take a ride off the
black top onto the chirt rock G Take ya right by his house C He got a cur dog chained
to a dog wood C And a mule that's meaner than crap G He's got him a champion fighting rooster G That Chickens the pride of
the Uriah pit D Served his country in Korea C Served his time up in a cell [Chorus]
G For cooking up good homemade corn liquor G The Kind that make a man go blind G Kind that make a poor man richer G When the folks vote the county dry G Kind that'll get ya there quicker G Put some slack back in ya jaw N.C. I'm talkin' that good homemade

stack way off the two track G Well then follow the
