[Verse 1]
       G           C
Well, when I was a little bitty boy
    G                    D
No bigger than an old polecat
         G             C
Well, I used to wonder like all kids
G          D       G
What made this do that?

         G                  C
Now, I'd seen what happened to my pa
     G                       D
When he take a drink from a jug
            G                          C
Yeah, he'd start with a smile and then after awhile
        G           D           G
He'd be out on the floor like a rug

[Chorus]
     C                          G
Corn liquor (corn liquor) corn liquor (corn liquor)
G                           D
What makes you do what you do?
            G                    C
Well, they feel no pain when you touch their brain
     G       D        G
Corn liquor they love you

[Verse 2]
      G                   C
Well, now one day in the afternoon
    G                     D
My folks were away for awhile
       G                 C
Yeah I got the jug down from the shelf
    G   D             G
To see what made 'em smile

        G                   C
Now, I slowly sipped and I nearly flipped
     G              D
That one drink was enough
        G            C
For the life of me I just can't see
            G      D     G
Why they love that awful stuff

[Chorus]
     C                          G
Corn liquor (corn liquor) corn liquor (corn liquor)
                           D
What makes you do what you do?
            G
Well, they feel no pain when you touch their brain
     G       D        G
Corn liquor they love you

[Verse 3]
         G                C
Well, as I grew older I thought about
     G                 D
That first sip that I had
          G                C
Yeah, it really burned but soon I learned
   G       D       G
It wasn't all that bad

        G                  C
Now to ease the pressures of this world
            G               D
Here's the way I've got it figured
         G               C
Well the thing to do for me and you
    G           D        G
Is drink lotsa good corn liquor

[Chorus]
     C                          G
Corn liquor (corn liquor) corn liquor (corn liquor)
G                          D
What makes you do what you do?
          G                    C
Well, I feel no pain when you touch my brain
     G      D      G
Corn liquor I love you

[Outro]
          G                     C
Yeah, I feel no pain when you touch my brain
     G      D      G
Corn liquor I love you
