Capo: 4th fret
[Intro]
D Bm Em D
[Verse 1]
D A
My grandpappy was a happy hillbilly
G
A holler-raised, blue-collar, dollar-made man
D
A t’bacc’r-stained smiler
A
A shiner in the dark
G
With a keep-it-real-heart and a commonsense plan
A
I loved how he said what he said sometimes
G
Whenever he found me down
A
With a laugh and that throwback Arkansas drawl
G
That you get from my hick town
G
He’d say
[Chorus]
D
Rub a little country
A
Rub a little country
G
Rub a little country on it
D
Yeah, like jaw chaw on a dang
A
Dirt dauber sting
G
By God doggone it
D
Yeah, rub a little country
A
Rub a little country
G
Rub a little country on it
[Verse 2]
D
It’s a bow on a fiddle
A
It’s whittling on hickory
G
It’s a homemade butter on cornbread thing
D
Getting back down to earth
A
Like a name on a shirt
G
Don’t forget where you’re from
G
If you know what I mean
A
When that city ain’t looking so green
[Chorus]
D
Rub a little country
A
Rub a little country
G
Rub a little country on it
D
Yeah, like jaw chaw on a dang
A
Dirt dauber sting
G
By God doggone it
D
Yeah, rub a little country on it
A G
Aw, yeah
[Bridge]
D
On that clean truck
A
On some “Life sucks”
G
On that “Been there, done that. Now what?”
D
On that “Done you wrong”
A
On that shortcut home
G N.C.
On the radio before you turn it on
[Chorus]
D
Rub a little country
A
Rub a little country
G
Rub a little country on it
D
Yeah, like jaw chaw on a dang
A
Dirt dauber sting
G
By God doggone it
D
Yeah, rub a little country
A
Rub a little country
G
Rub a little country on it
G
Yeah
