[00:00.00]The Shot Gun Boogie - Tennessee Ernie Ford
[00:05.10]There it stands in the corner
[00:06.47]With the barrel so straight
[00:07.82]I looked out the winder and over the gate
[00:10.57]The big fat rabbits are jumpin＇ in the grass
[00:13.72]Wait 'till they hear my old shotgun blast
[00:16.35]Shotgun boogie I done saw your track
[00:21.78]Look out Mr Rabbit when
[00:23.24]I cock my hammer back
[00:27.05]Well over on the ridge is a scaly bark
[00:30.13]Hickory nuts so big you can see'em in the dark
[00:32.74]The big fat squirrels they scratch and they fight
[00:35.34]I'll be on that ridge before daylight
[00:37.87]With a shotgun boogie all I need is one shot
[00:43.67]Look out bushy-tails tonight you'll be in the pot
[01:05.10]Well I met a pretty gal she was tall and thin
[01:08.09]I asked her what she had she said a Fox four-ten
[01:10.85]I looked her up and down said boy this is love
[01:13.35]So we headed for the brush to shoot a big fat dove
[01:16.39]Shotgun boogie boy the feathers flew
[01:21.70]Look out Mr Dove when she draws a bead on you
[01:27.01]I sat down on a log took her on my lap
[01:29.62]She said wait a minute bud you got to see my pap
[01:32.31]He's gotta sixteen gauge choked down like a rifle
[01:35.50]He don't like a man that's gonna trifle
[01:38.26]Shotgun boogie draws a bead so fine
[01:43.63]Look out big boy he's loaded all the time
[02:05.35]Well I called on her pap
[02:06.95]Like a gentleman oughter
[02:08.06]He said no brush hunter's
[02:09.24]Gonna get my daughter
[02:10.88]He cocked back the hammer right on the spot
[02:13.58]When the gun went off I outrun the shot
[02:16.48]Shotgun boogie I wanted weddin' bells
[02:21.91]I'll be back little gal
[02:23.33]When your pappy runs out of shells
