Show ’em who’s boss with your smoker’s cough
A E
Give it to ’em early in the mornin’
E F#m
You smell like salt and cotton balls
A E
Baked in the high blue sun
E F#m
The river runs wide and crooked at times
A E
Swells up with the hurricane rain
E F#m
I don’t mind, it doesn’t happen all the time
A E
I was born to bare a hurricane
A E
I was born to bare a hurricane
CHORUS:
F#m
They say you can’t foresee the weather
A E
But you can stand in the wind
E F#m
You can thank the sky when the cotton grows high
A E
Curse the dirt when it’s dead again
A E E A A
Curse the dirt whеn it’s dead again
POST-CHORUS:
E F#m
Life is suffering
F#m A
But lovе and family

Make hard work in the hot sun

Okay when the day is done

VERSE:

Abel killed Cain and took the remains
A E
To drop out deep in the ocean
E F#m
Came back covered in the poor boy’s blood
A E
But nobody said a thing
E F#m
You know his blood runs wild and crooked at times
A E
Swells up like the hurricane rain
E F#m
I don’t mind it doesn’t happen all the time
A E
I was born to be a hurricane
A E
I was born to be a hurricane
