Lyrics Shotgun Boogie - Tennessee Ernie Ford
There
it
stands
in
the
corner
with
the
barrel
so
straight
I
looked
out
the
winder
and
over
the
gate
The
big
fat
rabbits
are
jumpin'
in
the
grass
Wait
'til
they
hear
my
old
shotgun
blast
Shotgun
boogie,
I
done
saw
your
track
Look
out
Mr.Rabbit
when
I
cock
my
hammer
back
Well,
over
on
the
ridge
is
a
scaly
bark
Hickory
nuts
so
big
you
can
see
'em
in
the
dark
The
big
fat
squirrels,
they
scratch
and
they
fight
I'll
be
on
that
ridge
before
daylight
With
a
shotgun
boogie,
all
I
need
is
one
shot
Look
out
bushy
tails,
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,
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
Mr.Dove
when
she
draws
a
bead
on
you
I
sat
down
on
a
log,
took
her
on
my
lap
She
said
wait
a
minute
bud,
you
got
to
see
my
pap
He's
gotta
sixteen
gauge
choked
down
like
a
rifle
He
don't
like
a
man
that's
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
oughter
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
outrun
the
shot
Shotgun
boogie,
I
wanted
weddin'
bells
I'll
be
back
little
gal,
when
your
pappy
runs
out
of
shells
