(VS.1) 
 
D                                      A 
Well the moon just came over the tree tops 
A                                  D 
And the whippoorwill started to sing 
D 
So I slid down the hill 
G 
Got into the still 
            A                      D 
And drank till my ears started to ring 
 
(VS.2) 
 
D                                     A 
I followed a trail to through the hollow 
A                         D 
To a shack back in the woods 
D 
It?s my eighteenth birthday 
   G 
Honey come out and play 
      A                      D 
Its time that we got to no good 
 
 
D                           G 
Now I ain?t afraid to be lonely 
A                              D 
But I still wanna learn about love 
D                                     G 
I?m a hillbilly child raised in the wild 
A                              D 
Come lay down on my bare skin rug 
 
 
 
(VS.3)  
 
A                            E 
My dress is torn up and tattered 
E                          A 
My daddy left a long time ago 
A                                    
And my hair just hangs down 
  D 
I never made it to town 
          E                        A 
Momma said that?s where bad people go 
 
 
(VS.4) 
 
A                            E 
But me and my sister been talkin' 
E                                  A 
She?s eighteen one year older than me 
A 
She laid down with a man 
D                               E 
I want to understand what she says 
               A 
I'll never believe  
 
 
A                            D 
Now I ain?t afraid to be lonely 
E                               A 
But I still wanna learn about love 
A                                    D 
I?m a hillbilly child raised in the wild 
E                              A 
Lay me down on your bare skin rug 
 
(BRIDGE) 
 
E 
Now I need a woman 
A 
And I need a man 
D 
We ain?t got nobody 
E 
An' we ain?t even kin 
 
 
A                            D 
Now I ain?t afraid to be lonely 
E                               A 
But I still wanna learn about love 
A                                    D 
I?m a hillbilly child raised in the wild 
E                              A 
Lay me down on your bare skin rug 
(No Chord)                    A 
Come lay down on my bare skin
