The great grandpappy when the land was young
Am Em
Barred his door with a wagon tongue, oh

Oooh-ho-ho-ho-ho

When the times got tough and redskins smart

Said his prayers with his shotgun cocked, oh
Em
Oh-oh-uh-oh, oh-huh-oh

The great grandpappy was a busy man

Picked his teeth with a hunting knife

He wore the same suit all-a his life, oh
Em
Ooo-oh-ooo
Em
Yeah-ay-oh

Twenty-one children came to be blessed

The old man's house in the wilderness, oh

Doubt his story if you can

The great grandpappy was a busy man
Em
Oh---oh-oh-oh
Am
Ah-ha

Ooow
