[Verse]
C
Mama put brother on a prayer list
        F
When he got caught smoking that pot
C
Daddy found out, first thing he could grab
       G
And he whipped him with a Zebco rod
     F
When we messed up she'd fit us up
         C                       F
With the scripture and a Baptist hymn
          C
And she'd pray we'd be a little more like her
      G                    C
And a whole lot less like him

[Chorus]
            F
Mama loved Jesus
                 C
Daddy loved Jack Daniels
                   G
She was red letter heaven
                  C
He was old number seven
                 F
Between the two of 'em
                              Am
Weren't nothin' they couldn't handle
           F     G
Mama loved Jesus
                 C
Daddy loved Jack Daniels

[Verse]
   C
He hated how she never had no fun
    F
She hated how he had too much
      C
I got little bit from both of them
         G
a little bible and a little buzz
F
I wound up turnin' out
C             F
Smackdab in between
    C
His taste for Lynchburg
        G                 C
And her grace from John 3:16

[Chorus]
           F
Mama loved Jesus
                 C
Daddy loved Jack Daniels
                   G
She was red letter heaven
                  C
He was old number seven
                F
Between the two of 'em
                              Am
Weren't nothin' they couldn't handle
           F     G
Mama loved Jesus
                 C
Daddy loved Jack Daniels

[Bridge]
                  Am
I'm a little hell yeah
                  G
I'm a little hallelujah
                        F
If there's a stool or a pew
                      G
I might sit down next to ya

[Chorus]
           F
Mama loved Jesus
                 C
Daddy loved Jack Daniels
                   G
She was red letter heaven
                  C
He was old number seven
                F
Between the two of 'em
                              Am
Weren't nothin' they couldn't handle
           F     G
Mama loved Jesus
                 C
Daddy loved Jack Daniels
