Ain’t no man of higher education                                                
                                              
                     
I am nothing in the way of   wit

                         
Ain’t no poster child   

+5/         +9+11  +9+11

                  ,9 ,-9      
But I know a good thing 

                                            (maj7-5)/
 when I  see it

                                                 (maj7-5)/
I know a good thing!

                                 
Ain’t too big          on old    time religion
            
                    
I keep the faith the way I  see  it

                   
Indeed some might say     

/         +9+11    +9+11      
I’m a    man gone   to     per  dition

                           ,9 ,-9
maybe so, but I know a good thing

I know a good thing!!!.....

                              
    Don’t need no weather man to tell me when

    
he sun     is     shining

       /      -9
No GPS, no gyrocompass, best guess west

            
Is where it sets tonight

                             
     Don’t need no dotted line, no print too fine

    
I’m more of the mind

             +5+9    -9
To read the man, shake his hand

                              
Let the cards land where they might

She got eyes like sapphire diamonds

                      
A set of legs that just won’t quit

                          
I didn’t quite get her name
