E7
Back porch preacher preaching at me
E7
Acting like he wrote the golden rules
A7
Shaking his fist and speeching at me
E7
Shouting from his soap box like a fool
     B7
Come Sunday morning he's lying in bed
   
         A7
With his eye all red, with the wine in his head
      
      [ A7 ]
Wishing he was dead
                                       E7  A7    E7   
When he oughta be heading for Sunday school

Drugstore cowboy criticizing
E7
Acting like he's better than you and me
A7
Standing on the sidewalk supervising
E7
Telling everybody how they ought to be
     B7
Come closing time 'most every night
   
   A7
He locks up tight and out go the lights
 
      [ A7 ]
And he ducks out of sight and he cheats on his wife
               E7  A7    E7   
With his employee

Armchair quarterback's always moanin'
E7
Second guessing people all day long
A7
Pushing, fooling and hanging on in
E7
Always messing where they don't belong
         B7
When you get right down to the nitty-gritty

Isn't it a pity that in this big city

Not a one a'little bitty man'll admit

He could have been a little bit wrong
