For the purposes of the verse and chorus, this is the strumming pattern/notes to be played.  I'll just write
G, C and D over the words like a chord guide, but this is what you should play:
 
       "G"            "C"          "D"

I was a little bitty baby when my papa hit the skids
Mama had a time tryin' to raise nine kids
She told me not to stare cause it was impolite
She did the best she could to try to raise me right
      C                                           G

         D                       C                  G
