G
Now I got a gal that's sweet to me

She just ain't what she used to be
                    C7
Just a little high headed
               G
Thats plain to see
                     D7
Don't get above your raising
                        G
Stay down on earth with me
G
Now looky here gal don't you high hat me

I ain't forgot what you used to be
                     C7
When you didn't have nothing
                 G
That was plain to see
                     D7
Don't get above your raising
                        G
Stay down on earth with me

G
Now you need not hold your head so high

Every time you pass me by
                   C7
For it don't mean nothing
           G
To me you see
                     D7
Don't get above your raising
                        G
Stay sown on earth with me
G
Now looky here gal you better be yourself

And leave that other stuff on the shelf
               C7
You're country baby
                G
That's plain to see
                     D7
Don't get above your raising
                        G
Stay down on earth with me


G
Now I got a gal that's sweet to me

She just ain't what she used to be
                    C7
Just a little high headed
               G
Thats plain to see
                     D7
Don't get above your raising
                        G
Stay down on earth with me
