Shootgun Boogie - Tennessee Ernie Ford/G. Sullivan

There it stands in the corner with the barrel so straight

I looked out the window and over the gate

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

Wait'll they hear my old shotgun blast Shotgun Boogie

I done saw your tracks Look out Mr Rabbit

When I cock my hammer back Well over on the ridge is a scaly bark

Hick'ry nuts so big you can see 'em in the dark

The big fat squirrels they scratch and they bite

I'll be on that ridge before daylight Shotgun Boogie

All I need is one shot Look out bushy tail

Tonight you'll be in the pot

Well I met a pretty gal

She was tall and thin I asked her what she had she said

"A Fox Four-Ten" I looked her up and down and said

"Boy this is love" So we headed for the brush

To shoot a big fat dove Shotgun Boogie

Boy the feathers flew Look out Mister Dove

When she draws a bead on you I sat down on a log

Took her on my lap She said "Wait a minute

Bub you got to see my Pap

He's got a sixteen-gauge choked down like a rifle

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

Shotgun Boogie draws a bead so fine

Look out big boy he's loaded all the time

Well I called on her Pap like a gentleman oughta

He said "No brush hunter's gonna get my daughter"

He cocked back the hammer right on the spot

When the gun went off I outran the shot Shotgun Boogie

I wanted wedding bells I'll be back little gal

When your pappy runs out of shells
