Turpentine and dandelion wine,

I've turned the corner, an' I'm doin' fine.

Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line; 
A                         D 
Pickin' 'em off with this gun o' mine. 
G                            D 
Got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head, 
A                                D 
Going higher and higher 'til I'm dead.

But I'm all right, so I don't care.
