Shotgun Boogie

G
There it stands in the corner with the barrel so straight


I looked out the window and over the gate

    C
The big fat rabbits are a-jumpin' in the grass

G
Wait'll they hear my old shotgun blast

C                               G
Shotgun Boogie  I done saw your tracks

     D7                                   G
Look out Mr. Rabbit when I cock my hammer back



Well over on the ridge is a scaly bark


Hickory nuts so big you can see 'em in the dark

    C
The big fat squirrels they scratch and they bite

G
I'll be on that ridge before daylight with

C                                 G

Well I met a pretty gal she was tall and thin


I asked her what she had she said a fox 410

  C
I looked her up and down and said boy this is love

G
So we headed for the brush to shoot a big fat Dove

C                                G
Shotgun Boogie  boy the feathers flew

     D7                                    G
Look out Mr. Dove when she draws a bead on you




I sat down on a log took her on my lap


She said wait a minute bud you got to see my pap

     C
He's got a 16-gauge choked down like a rifle

G
He don't like a man that's a-gonna trifle

Shotgun Boogie  draws a bead so fine

     D7                              G
Look out big boy he's loaded all the time



Well I called on her pap like a gentleman oughter


He said no brush hunter's gonna get my daughter

   C
He cocked back the hammer right on the spot

G
When the gun went off I outran the shot

C                                G
Shotgun Boogie  I wanted wedding bells
