Big Dupree

A                              D
Hoddy Holly was a cajun in the town 
that I was raised in
A                                 
She was something most amazin' to 
                 E
my inexperienced eyes
        A                          
But the fact was clearly stated she
     D
 and Big Dupree was mated
      A                         E 
And a dreadful fate awaited anyone
                 A
 who touched his bride
         D                         
Cause he said it loud and clear for
 A
 all the town to hear
And he nailed it up for all the town
    E
 to see
         A                         
That the man who puts his hand upon
                   D
 the hand of Hoddy Holly
     E                         
Will feel the heavy hand of Big 
 A
Dupree

[Verse 2]
          A                        
But that dangerous situation worked
    D
 on my imagination

    A                              
And passin' up temptation ain't the
                 E
 thing that I do best
        A                          
And you know the way things 
            D
happened one night Dupree was out 
trappin'
      A                            
And I spent the evening nappin' 
      E            A
with her head upon my chest
         D                         
Then the roar come from a door six 
     A
foot four maybe more
He stood standin' there and starin' 
        E
right at me
        A                          
He said boy you put your hand upon 
                  D
the hand of Hoddy Holly
            E                    
Now you'll feel the heavy hand of 
       A
Big Dupree

[Verse 3]
        A                       
Then crazed by ragin' passion he 
        D
come dashin' smashin' crashin'
       A                           
And I felt his blade come slashin' 
through my shrieks and screams and 
 E
groans
           A                       
And there just ain't nothin' worse 
                        D
than what he done to my person
        A                          
And I spend these evenings a 
             E
cursin' him in slightly higher tones
         D                         
Cause he said it loud and clear for
 A
 all the town to hear
And he nailed it up for all the town
    E
 to see
         A                         
That the man who puts his hand upon
                   D
 the hand of Hoddy Holly
     E                         
Will feel the heavy hand of Big 
 A
