[C]Ern[G]ie Ford)

[Verse 2]
[G]There it stands in the corner with
the barrel so straight
I looked out the window and over the gate
The [C]big, fat [G]rabbits are a-
jumpin' in the grass
Wait'll they hear my old shotgun blast
[C]Shot[C#]gun [G]Boogie, I done saw your tracks
Look out [C]Mr. Rabbit [D]when
I cock my ham[G]mer back

[Verse 3]
[G]
Well, over on the ridge is a scaly bark
Hick'ry nuts so big you can
see 'em in the dark
[C]The big fat squir[G]rels they
scratch and [C]they [G]bite
I'll be on that ridge before daylight
[C]Shotgun [G]Boogie, all I need is one shot
Look out [C]bushy tail,
to[D]night [C]you'll be in the pot

[Verse 4]
Well, I [G]met a pretty [C]gal, [G]she was tall and thin
[C]I a[G]sked her what she had,
she said: "A Fox Four- [C]Ten"
I looked her up and [G]down and said: "Boy,
this is love"
So we headed for the brush
to shoot a big fat dove
[C]Shot[G]gun Boogie, boy the feathers flew
Look out Mister [C]Dove when [D]she [G]draws [C]a
bead [G]on you

[Interlude 2]

[Verse 5]
[G]I sat down on a log, took her on my lap
She said, "Wait a minute, bub,
you got to see my Pap
He's got [C]a sixteen- gauge
[G]choked down like a rifle
He don't like a man that's
a- gonna [G]trifle"
[C]Shot[C#]gun [G]Boog[Bb]ie,
[G]draws a bead so fine
Look [C]out big boy,
he's [D]loaded all the time
[G]

[Verse 6]
Well, I called on her Pap like
a gentleman oughta
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 outran the shot
Shot[C#]gun Boogie, I wanted wedding bells[G]
I'll be back little gal,
when [D]your pappy runs out of shells
