Out Behind The Barn

Written by Boudleaux Bryant

	  		  G                          D7 
My Daddy used to tan my hide, Out Behind the Barn 
                             G 
He taught me to be dignified Out Behind the Barn 
 C 
When he took his strap to me 
    G 
And turned me down across his knee 
   D7                                       G 
He sure missed up my dignity, Out Behind the Barn 
 
 
          (Chorus) 
    G                D7 
  I got my education Out Behind the Barn 
                              G 
     I ain't a foolin' no sir-eeee 
                          D7 
  Passed each examination Out Behind the Barn 
                                     G 
     And it almost made a man out of me 
 
 
 G                          D7 
I smoked my first cigarette Out Behind the Barn 
                                  G 
And that's one day I won't forget Out Behind the Barn 
 C 
I got sick you should have seen 
    G 
How that tobacco turned me green 
  D7                                     G 
I almost died of nicotine Out Behind the Barn 
 
 
 
  G                         D7 
I met a pretty girl one day Out Behind the Barn 
                               G 
She wanted me to stay and play Out Behind the Barn 
 C 
She taught me to kiss and pet 
 G 
That's a game I can't forget 
      D7                                              G 
Cause we still play that same game yet Out Behind the Barn 
 
 
 
     G                        D7 
I'm glad that I can go again Out Behind the Barn 
                                  G 
And do the things that I did then Out Behind the Barn 
    C 
Now you might think it ain't no fun 
   G 
To be a poor ole farmers son 
 D7                                              G 
You don't know what all I've done Out Behind the Barn 
 
 
    G                D7 
  I got my education Out Behind the Barn 
                                     G 
     and it made a better man out of me, 
            D7                         G 
     and it almost made a wreck out of me.
