[Verse 1]
D                                                          A
He's got a one bedroom trailer, an' a brand-new satellite dish,
D                                                          A
A warm beer an' a remote control in his two clenched fists,
       E7                 D                                A
An' he sits in his chair, thinking of all the things he's missed.

[Verse 2]
D                                        A
Livin' on crank, pork rinds, and cold beer.
D                                        A
It's Saturday night, time to go hunt some queers.
       E7                 D                    A
With his momma's .38, he can blow away all his fears.

[Chorus]
D                                        A
He's a hayseed time bomb, livin' in a turkey shoot.
D                                        A
He's thumbin' into town, to try an' sell his boots.
   E7                       D            A
He spent all his money on a one-eyed prostitute.

[Verse 3]
D                                            A
He's headin' into town, riding on a derailed train.
D                                            A
The devil's playin' skeeball deep inside his brain!
E7                       D                   A
People in this town will never forget his name.

[Chorus]
D                                        A
He's a hayseed time bomb, livin' in a turkey shoot.
D                                        A
He's thumbin' into town, to try an' sell his boots.
    E7                      D            A
He spent all his money on a one-eyed prostitute.
