Don't Get Above Your Raisin'

Don't Get Above Your Raisin' - Flatt & Scruggs

Now I got a gal

That's sweet to me

She just ain't

What she used to be

Just a little high headed

That's plain to see

Don't get above

Your raisin'

Stay down

To earth with me

Now look here gal

Don't you high head me

I ain't forgot

How you used to be

When you didn't have nothin'

That was plain to see

Don't get above

Your raisin'

Stay down

To earth with me

Now you need not

Hold your head so high

Every time

You pass me by

For that don't mean nothin'

To me you see

Don't get above

Your raisin'

Stay down

To earth with me

Now look here gal

Don't you high head me

I ain't forgot

How you used to be

When you didn't have nothin'

That was plain to see

Don't get above

Your raisin'

Stay down

To earth with me

Now look here gal

You'd better be yourself

And leave that

Other stuff on the shelf

You're a country baby

That's plain to see

Don't get above your raisin'

Stay down

To earth with me
