[Am][C][G][Am][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Little Jesse
[C]Younger was [G]a well respected lad
[Am]Doing all he c[C]ould to please
his [G]mommy and his dad
But he [C]never planned to [G]be the man
[C]They said that he'd be[E]come
And [Am]somehow or an[C]other
Jesse's [Am]little baby [G]brother
Is his [Am]father's and his
[Em]mother's only [Am]son
Every day [C]the neighbors say
that [G]it's a dirty shame
The way [Am]he spat upon his [C]family and
[G]scandalized their name
And his [C]parents never [G]really ever
[C]said he'd been dis[E]owned
But [Am]somehow or an[C]other
now his [Am]little baby [G]brother
Is his [Am]father's and his
[Em]mother's only [Am]son
[C]Oh, Jesse Younger you're
a [Am]devil not a man
Can you [C]dare to treat your
parents so un[Am]kind?
You have [C]selfishly refused to live
your [Am]life the way they planned
And [D]you've started going your own
way and [E]speaking your own mind.
[Am]Jesse Younger's pare[C]nts wonder
[G]where it all went wrong
[Am]Now that Jesse's name [C]has turned
to [G]ashes on their tongues
But he [C]chose to starve [G]asnd try
to carve a fu[C]ture of [E]his own
[Am]And he got his d[C]ruthers because
[Am]now his younger [G]brother
Is his [Am]father's and his [Em]mother's only [A]son.
[Em]Oh, [A]Jesse Younger,
[Em]you're a devil not a man
[A]Can you dare to treat your
[Em]parents so unkind?
You have selfishly refuysed to [A]live your life
[Em]the way they planned
And you've started [A]going your
own way and speaking your own mind.
