[G] [C] [Eb] [G]
That stand in the corner where the barrels are straight
I looked out the window and over the gate The big fat rabbit are jumping in the grass
Wait till they hear my old [Gb] shotgun [Em] blast [C] Shotgun boogie
[G] I done saw your track [D] Look out Mr.
Rabbit when I [C] cock my [G] hammer back
Well over on the ridge is a scaly bark Hickory nuts are big you can see them in
the [Gm] dark The big fat squirrel they [G] scratch and they
fight I'll be on that ridge [C] before daylight
With a shotgun boogie [G] All I need is one shot
[D] Look out bushy tail [G] Tonight you'll be in the pond
[D] [G]
Well I met a pretty gal she was tall and thin
I asked her what she had she said a fox 4'10 [C] I looked her [G] 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 [D] Look out Mr.
Dove when she draws [C] a bead [G] on
you I sat down on a log hooker on my lap
She said wait a minute bud you got to see my path
He's got a 16 gauge choked down like a rifle He don't like a man that's a gonna trifle
Shotgun boogie Draws a bead so fine
[D] Look out big boy [G] he's loaded all the time
[Ebm]
[G] [Eb] [Em] [Dm] [C]
[G]
[Am] [G]
Well I called on her pap like a gentleman oughta He said no brush hunter's gonna get
my daughter [Gm] He cocked back the hammer right on the spot
[G] When the gun went off I outrun [Gm] the shot Shotgun boogie
I [G] wanted wedding bells [D] I'll be back little gal when your pappy [G] runs
out of sheds
