(a capella until you reach "to a Cajun.."
Oh, play me some mountain music
like grandma and grandpa used to play
Then I'll float on down the riv-er
to a Ca-jun hidea-way.
Drift away like Tom Sawyer
Ride a raft with ol' Huck Finn
Take a nap like Rip Van Winkle,
daze dreamin' -gain.
-same chords as chorus one for the first 3 lines. Then:
to a Ca-jun hidea-way.
(guitar solo)
same chords as 1)
Swim across the river
Just to prove that I'm a man
Spend the day bein' lazy
Just bein' nature's friend
v3
Climb a long tall hick'ry
Bend it over, skinnin' cats
Playin' baseball with chert rocks
Usin' sawmill slabs for bats
(also a capella, like first chorus, until you reach "'cause that's where..")
Play some back-home come-on music
that comes from the heart
Play something with lots of feel-in'
'cause that's where music has to start.
(chorus 2)
on last line "...a cajun hideaway aay-aay-aaaiiiaay" - then a drum solo
ensues and the tempo increases--go back to the first chorus for the ending,
but play all of the chords.
Enjoy!
