Soldier's Joy
Recorded by Hawkshaw Hawkins
Written by Jimmie Driftwood

C F
Some continental soldier's on a bivouac
C G7
Were playin' stud poker in a mountain shack
C F
But every vigilante through down his hands
C G7 C
When the Captain of the guard gave a sharp command


Oh Jimmy get your fiddle out rosin' up your bow
G7
Johnny clean your banjo up we're gonna have a show
C F
Billy pass the jug around to Corporal McCoy
C G7 C
We're gonna have a tune called Soldier's Joy

F
The girls in Boston are dancin' tonight
C G7
The gall-durn redcoats are holdin' 'em tight
C F
When we get there we'll show 'em how
C G7 C
But that ain't a doin' us no good now

repeat #2

F
There goes General Washington
C G7
He's got his horse in a sweeping run
C F
The barefoot boys are beggin' to fight
C G7 C
We're gonna cross the Delaware River tonight

Repeat #2

F
Old Burgoyne in the wilderness
C G7
Got his army in an awful mess
C F
Farmers got mad at the British an the Huns
C G7 C
And they captured ten-thousand of the son-of-a-guns

Repeat #2

F
John Paul Jones in an old tin can
C G7
Scoured the ocean like a fightin' man
C F
The British said Paul are you ready to strike
C G7 C
And Paul said I'm just beginning to fight

Repeat #2
