Verse
F Eb
She’s raising cattle, she’s raising bars
Dm G7
She ain’t got time for the evening stars
F C F
She gets up at five every morning
F Eb
She’s got a bucket in her hand
Dm G7
Spilling poison on the neighbour’s land
F C F F7
Always brings a smile to that pretty face
[Chorus]
A# Am Am7
She’s gonna put you six feet under
D7 G7 C C7
She’s gonna put you in the ground
A# Am Am7
She’s gonna make you scream blue thunder
A# A# A# F
That girl will surely put you down
[Verse 2]
F Eb
In the village, into the church
Dm G7
Calls a priest and from her curse
F C F
Hands him the money, walks away redeemed
F Eb
They close their doors, they close the blinds
Dm G7
As she makes her way to Clementine’s
F C F F7
We’re the only place that serves her here
[Chorus]
A# Am Am7
She’s gonna put you six feet under
D7 G7 C C7
She’s gonna put you in the ground
A# Am Am7
Somehow I cannot help but wonder
A# A# A# F
When she is gonna put me down
F Eb A# Ab
Black Jolene, why so mean?
