Ode To The Little Shack Out Back
Recorded by Bobby Bare
Written by Billy Ed Wheeler

G
They passed an ordinance in the town

They said we'd have to tear it down
D7
That little old shack out back so dear to me
G C
Though the health department said its day was over and dead
G D7 G
It will stand forever in my memory


Don't let them tear that little brown building down
D7 G
Don't let them tear that precious building down
C Am
Don't let them tear that dear old building down
G C D7 G
There's not another like it in the country or the town


It was not so long ago that I went tripping through the snow
D7
Out to that house behind my old hound dog
G C
Where I would sit me down to rest like a snowbird on his nest
G D7 G
And I'd read that Sears and Roebuck catalog


Oh I would hum a happy tune peeping through the quarter moon
D7
As my daddy's kin had done so much before
G C
It was in that quiet spot daily cares could be forgot
G D7 G
And it gave the same relief to rich and poor

repeat #2


Now it was not a castle fair but I could dream of future there
D7
Build my castle to the yellow jackets drone
G C
I could orbit round the sun fight with General Washington
G D7 G
Or be a king upon a golden throne


It wasn't fancy built at all we had newspapers on the wall
D7
It was air-conditioned in the wintertime
G C
Oh it was just an humble hut but its door was never shut
G D7 G
And a man could get inside without a dime

repeat #2
