[Intro]
Sorry, y'all, my mamaw
called me, I'll, I'll be
D Bm G A
right back, hello?
[Verse 1]
A D
It was always hotter than
Em
the grease she used to
D
fry that chicken
G
Smelled like Marlboro Reds
A
and all the butter
from her biscuits
D
And that Lincoln in the

driveway, circa 1982

Was on the shiny
side of rusty
A
and on the paler
side of blue
G
'Cussin and complainin'
A D
weren't allowed in Mamaw's
house
[Chorus]
G
If every nightstand had a Bible,
D A
every front porch had a swing
G
If every backyard had a garden,
D A
every front door had a screen
Bm A
Well, maybe this crazy world
G
would straighten up and
D
slow on down
G A
If every town had a
D Bm D G
Mamaw's house
[Verse 2]
D Bm
She'd ask if I was hungry every
thirty seconds
G
And say things like "hellfire,
A
" "tarnation," and "I reckon's"
D
It's where I spent my summers
Bm
and she put me to work
G
Shellin' peas and shuckin'
A
corn until my fingers hurt
G
No tellin' who I'da been
A D
without Mamaw's house
