They is an old sayin' everybody knows it's True

E          F                                     E
Home sweet home is the place that's best for you

E                 F  E
I likes to travel, I do likes to roam

E                  F                          A
When I get that fever before I got to go back home
[Verse 2]
E                   F                    E
I've seen them city folks try to move in way down south

E
Try to tell them Swamper people, what its all about

E
I've seen them city people, try to live in the bayou

E
Mutual of Omaha had to pay all the fools
[Chorus 1]
E
Way down south, down by the everglades

E
You got to be careful, of the gators and all the snakes

E
Just a word of a warning for travelers south bound

E
I said, Cottonmouth Country

N.C                      E
No place to fool around

E
Its bad bad
[Interlude] E [Verse 3]
E
Just one little squiter bite, will make your body sweat

E
And a 12 foot she Gator, scare youse half to death

E
And they got them cottonmouth bout as mean as can be

E
And if he bites you, your maker you're gonna see
[Verse 4]
E
Well, don't forget the mud, son, as deep as a creek

E
And some old razor back gonna chase you up a tree

E                                                       Em
They got them bob cats, they'll tare you limb from limb

Em                                         E
And if you get lost the chances are mighty slim
[Chorus 2]
E                                             Em
Cottonmouth country is a place that's near to me

E
It's one of them places still the way it's suppose to be

E                                              Em
Where a man can be so brave, tall as a big ol' tree

Em     E
Barely know his way around
N.C Wears boots above his knees [Solo] E Em E Em E Em E Em E
