[Intro] D [Verse 1]
      D
That hot old summer sun

         G                  D
Make ya beg for your next breath

                                               A
So ya best be on the creek bank a laid in the shade

D
Chewin' on a hickory twig

           G                      D
Pass that bottle, I'll have me a swig

         D               A              D
I ain't got a lot but I think I got it made, in the shade
[Chorus]
            G                                  D
I'm just a laid up here in a country state of mind
Catchin' these fish like they're goin' outta style
                        A
Drinkin' this homemade wine

             D
Hey, if the sun don't come up tomorrow

G                         D
People, I have had a good time

                             A                 D
I'm just a laid up here in a country state of mind
[Verse 2]
           D
I bet the old man's in the kitchen

                   G                D
He's got my kinda music on his radio

                                                  A
Aw, drinkin' his beer and dialin' up the request lines

D
Mama and old Aunt Joan

                 G                             D
Probably in the dining room tryin' to use the phone

                            A                D
Me, I'm thinkin' about that girl and later tonight, oh yeah
[Chorus]
            G                                  D
I'm just a laid up here in a country state of mind
Hey, I'm catchin' these fish like they're goin' outta style
                            A
I'm drinkin' this homemade wine

            D
And if the sun don't come up tomorrow

G                         D
People, I have had a good time

                             A                 D
I'm just a laid up here in a country state of mind

[Verse 3]
             E
Ya know the rednecks and the preppies

                  A                E
They're in their discos and honky-tonks

                                           B
Somewhere between raisin' hell and amazin' grace

         E
Lord, I know just how they feel

               A                    E
Ya got to get out and kick up your heels

                          B              E
And ain't it great to be living in the USA
[Chorus]
           A                                  E
Me, I'm a laid up here in a country state of mind
Catchin' these fish like they're goin' outta style
                        B
Drinkin' this homemade wine

        E
If the sun don't shine tomorrow

A                         E
People, I have had a good time

                             B                 E
I'm just a laid up here in a country state of mind

    E           B         E
Yodlehehoo, odlehehoo, odleee
