5 Pounds Of Possum chords by Misc Country

1. My children are hungry, my dog needs a bone.
    A7                   D
  I'm out of a job now, so I'm just drivin' home.
   G
  An hour after sundown, when what to my delight,
       G             D     G
  There's five pounds of possum in my headlights tonight.

Refrain
  There's five pounds of possum in my headlights tonight.
  If I can run him over, every thing’ll be all right.
  We'll have some possum gravy, oh what a sight;
  There's five pounds of possum in my headlights tonight.

2. Won't have to clean no chicken, won't have to open no cans.
  Just a little bit closer, and I'll have him in my hands.
  I think the time has come now, to go from "dim" to "bright."
