[Em]  H[G]u-[A]-ng [Em]   my cotton [G]dress [A]on rusted [Em]wire [G]    [A]
[Em]  Up there on [G]Pila[A]hatchee [Em]Bri[G]dg[A]e
[Em]   Just a [G]crazy [A]roughneck's [C]daughter
Jumped head-first into the [D]water

Baptized away my sins

same pattern and chords as above)
Hitched to town with Bobby Jo and Tommy
Couple of lookers, new best friends
We slipped in the back of Sunday service
Know them church ladies, they heard us
Bum smoke money from the offering

2nd half continues intro pattern)
[C]  Mama said, "Idle hands are [D]Devil's handywork"
Oh[C], the trouble you'll get in[B7]to
You got[Em] nothin' [G]better to [A]do, got [Em]nothin' better to [G]do
[A]You got[Em]   nothin' [G]better to [A]do, got [Em]nothin' better to do

same chords as before)
Sign read: BAIT, CHIPS BEER and AMMUNITION
That Slim-Jim bag boy hadn't a prayer
Well I hiked my skirt and did the talkin'
While them boys were busy walkin'
Case of .5 out the back door

same as before)
Hid deep in the Mississippi backwoods
We danced and played around 'til dark
Well I had them wrestlin' for my first kiss
Turned into a fight and they missed
Me speeding off in Tommy's car

same as before, until last G)
Mama said, "Idle hands are Devil's handywork"
Oh, the trouble you'll get into
You got nothin' better to do, got nothin' better to do
You got nothin' better to do, got nothin' better to do
Yeah!

  Nobody hurt, nobody harmed
         C
Nobody's busines but my own

Mama said, "Idle hands are[D] Devil's handwork
Oh[C], the trouble you'll get in[B7]to!"
You go[Em]t nothin' [G]better to [A]do, got [Em]nothin' better to [G]do

Got nothin' better to do!
You got nothin' better to do, no no!
