Shotgun Boogie
Recorded by Cal Smith
Written by Ernie Ford

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 rabbit is a jumpin' in the grass
G
Wait'll they hear my old shotgun blast
C G
Shotgun Boogie I done saw your tracks
D7 C G
Look out Mr. Rabbit when I cock my hammer back


Well over on the ridge is a scaly bark

The hickory nuts so big you can see 'em in the dark
C
The big fat squirrels they scratch and they bite
G
Well I'll be on that ridge before daylight
C G
With a Shotgun Boogie all I need is one shot
D7 C G
Look out bushy tail tonight you'll be in the pot


Well I met pretty gal she was tall and thin

I asked her what she had she said a fox 4-10
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 C G
Look out Mr. Dove when she draws a bead on you


I sat down on a log and took her on my lap

She said wait a minute bub you got to see my pap
C
He's got a sixteen gauge choked down like a rifle
G
He don't like a man that's a gonna trifle
C G
Shotgun Boogie draws a bead so fine
D7 C 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 outrun the shot
C G
Shotgun Boogie I wanted weddin' bells
D7 C G
I'll be back little gal when your pappy runs out of shells
