[Verse 1]
Well,
Em                               C   
Reverend, Reverend, please come quick
Em                          C 
Cause I got something to admit
Em                        C  G/B
I met a man out in the sticks
Am              
Of good Ole Miss

He drove a series 10 Cadillac

I saw him driving down the sixty one in early July
Am                     
White as a cotton field
     Em             
and sharp as a knife
