[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D Well we don't fight bulls and we don't race horses D And we don't give a damn what the fed enforces A But the good Lord taught us wrong from right A And it ain't no sin one little old cockfight G Pull up the truck to the pen in the yard D Big left turn on the boulevard G Round the bend the barn backdoor D Two chalk lines on the old dirt floor A Grab old Red and spur him tight A Bill 'em up boys let the bidding fly A It's beak to beak and it's eye to eye D N.C. D We found love at the Belle Meade cockfight
[Verse 2]
D I thought my heart knew everything D 'Til I saw you across that fighting ring A One look from you is all I need A Now we're one cockfighting family D G Cut that comb and dub them wattles D Shine that gaff all inch and a quarter G Meet in the middle of the pit if you dare D Watch them spurs and hackles flare A Kiss my bird and let her fly A Swing your cocks on up to the sky A Handlers watch don't let 'em die D N.C. We found love at the Belle Meade cockfight

[Verse 3]
D Well I love my bird like I love my wife D It's in our blood this way of life A And the only fun our youngins need A Is Saturday night in the old Belle Meade D G So take your corner chicken man D G And may the bravest chicken win D G It's blood and beer on Saturday night D Come Sundays morning it's chicken pie A So grab old Red and spur 'em tight A Bill 'em up boys let the bidding fly A It's beak to beak and it's eye to eye D N.C. D We found love at the Belle Meade cockfight
