Jump For Joy Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]She don't [Eb]wear[D][G]
no shoes upon her feet.
Joy.
She eats gopher stew
and possum [E]meat.
Oh, joy.
[G]Wears them tightly vised
that her little brother buys.
[A]Lord, it tears me up the
way she [D]looks me,
twixt the eye[Ab]s. she's in[D] love with me.
She [G]lives in the suburbs
of a swamp, my joy
Every weekend through those swamps
I [E]run, see my joy
Sit[G]tin' on the front porch hummin',
oh, then she sees me comin'
Drops whatever she's doin'
and she comes [E]runnin', boy
[A]I run back and[D] I jump for jo[G]y,
[C]joy, [G]joy[D][G][Eb][D]
[G]Every weekend I dress fit to kill, just for joy
I hitchhike from out of Jackson[E]ville,
see my joy
[G]Up to the Georgia line,
amongst the swamps and pines
[A]We sit around in her backyard
and [D]drink her pappy shine
And old Harvest Moon,
[G]long about dark,
her peppy goes to bed
Good night, Joy, you behave now
That's when Joy's face
starts [E]gettin' red
Cause [G]she knows when he's gone
And we're all alone
That gal knows that's when
I come on [E]strong
Then he's gone, oh boy!
[A]I run back, and I[D] jump for jo[G]y,
[C]joy, [G]joy[D]
[G][D]
