         G7                            Em7
Well, my pretty little one, how has it all begun?
        G7                                         Em7
They're teaching you how to walk, but baby, you're already on the run
       C7            G7
Little one, what you gonna do?
       C7               D7
Little one, honey, it's all up to you
 
         G7                                 Em7
Now your daddy's in the den shootin' up the evening news
G7                                 Em7
Mama's with a friend, lately she's been so confused
       C7               G7
Little one, come on and take my hand
        C7                                D7
Well, I may not have the answer but I be- lieve I got a plan
 
[Chorus]
           C7                        G7
Honey, you shake, I'll rattle, we'll roll on down the line
D7                                  G7
See if we can't get in touch with a very close friend of mine
           C7                                G7
But let me clue you in, it ain't like him to argue or pretend
D7                                C7
Honey, let me introduce you to my redneck friend

              G7                                       Em7
Well, they've got a little list of all those things of which they don't approve
      G7                                           Em7
Well, they've got to keep their eyes on you 'cause you might make your move
            C7            G7
Yeah little one, I really wish you would
       C7               D7                  G7
Little one, I think the damage would do you good
 
[Chorus]
                C7                        G7
Well honey, you shake, I'll rattle, we'll roll on down the line
      D7                                            G7
We're gonna forget all about the battle, it's gonna feel so fine
                C7                                 G7
'Cause he's the missing link, the kitchen sink, e- leven on a scale of ten
     D7                                C7
Well honey, let me introduce you to my redneck friend

          D7                                             G7
I'm gonna try to swing you up into my saddle, then we'll run but you'll feel like you're flyin'
      C7                                         G7
Well, don't stand there, just look at that, this dream ain't gonna end
D7                                C7      G7
Honey, let me introduce you to my redneck friend
