[Verse 1]
Just outside of Delta country
Where the bitter weeds growin' wild
Born seven miles outside o' Woodland
Was a Chickasaw County child
Chickasaw, Chickasaw

[Spoken]
That's all for this evenin'
Thank you very much for watchin'
An' good night

[Verse 2]
Leavin' the county a week from Monday
Ain't got much to pack
A tin can of black strap sorghum molasses
And a Farmers' Almanac

[Verse 3]
Momma done made me a brand-new dress
Made of blue polka dotted silk
Two postcards from California
An' a gallon of buttermilk

[Chorus]
Chickasaw County child
Is gonna be okay
Chickasaw County child
You gonna be somebody someday
[Post Chorus]
You gonna be somebody someday
You gonna be somebody someday
You gonna be somebody someday

[Outro]
(Chickasaw, Chickasaw, Chickasaw, Chickasaw)
(Chickasaw, Chickasaw, Chickasaw, Chickasaw)
(Chickasaw, Chickasaw, Chickasaw, Chickasaw)
(Chickasaw, Chickasaw, Chickasaw, Chickasaw)
(Chickasaw, Chickasaw, Chickasaw)
