Verse 1

Well I lived in a [D]town way down south by the [G]name of Owens[D]boro

As you[D] know

Verse 2

Well, we rise up [D]early in the morning and we [G]work all day rea[D]l hard
To buy our [Bm]litt[G]le meat and [D/F#]bread [G] buy sugar [D/F#]tea [A] and [D]lard

Well our children they [D]grow grow up unlearned with no [G]time to go to [D]school

Well, the folks in [D]town they dress so fine and [G]spend their money[D] free
But they would hardly [Bm]look[G] at a factory[D/F#] hand [G] who dresses[D/F#] like [A] you o[D]r me
Would you let them [D]wear their watches fine let them wear their [G]gems and pearly[D] strings
But when that [Bm]day [G] of judgement [D/F#]comes [G] they'll have to [D/F#]share [A] their pretty[D] things
But when that [Bm]day [G] of judgement [D/F#]comes [G] they'll have to [D/F#]share [A] their pretty[D] things
