歌曲歌詞
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 'till 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
