Dm Let me tell you, sonny. Let me set you straight Bb You kids today ain't never had it rough G Always had everything handed to you on a silver plate Dm You lazy brats think nothing's good enough Dm G Bb Well, nobody ever drove me to school when it was ninety degrees below Dm G Bb We had to walk butt naked through forty miles of snow Dm G Bb Worked in the coal mine twenty two hours a day for just half a cent Dm G Bb Had to sell my internal organs just to pay the rent

Verse 2
Dm Let me tell you something, you whiny little snot Bb There's something wrong with all you kids today G You just don't appreciate all the things you've got Dm We were hungry, broke and miserable and we liked it fine that way Dm G Bb There were seventy-three of us living in a cardboard box Dm G Bb All I got for Christmas was a lousy bag of rocks Dm G Bb Every night for dinner we had a big chunk of dirt D Dm G Bb If we were really good we didn't get desert

Bridge 1
F Didn't have no telephone didn't have no F X machine g All we had was a couple of cans and a crummy piece of string Bb C Didn't have no swimming pool when I was just a lad Dm Our neighbor's septic tank was the closest thing we had F Didn't have no dental floss had to use old rusty nails G G Didn't have Nintendo, we just poured salt on snails Bb C Didn't have no water bed, had to sleep on broken glass A Didn't have no lawnmower, we used our teeth to cut the grass

Dm What's the matter now, sonny, you say you don't believe this junk? Bb You think my story's wearin' kinda thin? G I tell you one thing, I never was such a disrespectful punk Dm Back in my time, we had a thing called discipline Dm G Bb Dad would whip us every night till a quarter after twelve Dm G Bb Then he'd get too tired and he'd make us whip ourselves Dm G Bb Then he'd chop me into pieces and play frisbee with my brain Dm G Bb And let me tell ya, Junior, you never heard me complain
Chorus 3
