Another day on Highway 41
                             A
It's a long black snake that runs to the sun
D                         G         F
My mama told me since the day I was born
D                             A         D
Son, down in the southland is where you belong
 
[Chorus]
        G                 D
So, I'm pitching nickels, pitching dimes
                  A
Talking trash and drinkin' wine
     D            D/C        G       F
It's just another day in the life of me
D              A      D
Hard times and misery
D
I got a mansion looks like a shotgun shack
                       A
I draw my money from a cotton sack
D                       G            F
But I finally found one thing that's free
D                          A      D
That's been hard times and misery
 
[Bridge]
D                                    C
Watermelon's are hanging on the vine
D                        A
Thirty some odd years of wasted time
D                     G            F
When I wake up, Lord, that's all I see
D                   A
It's hard times and misery
 
[Verse 3]
D
But there's a train that runs through this town
                       A
Every evening when the sun goes down
D                 G        F
Tomorrow night at Eight-o- Three
D                      A      D
No more hard times and misery
