| Come and listen to my story 'bout a man named | Jed |
| G | |
| Poor mountaineer, barely kept his family | fed |
| C | |
| Then one day he was shootin' at some | food |
| D | |
| And up through the ground | came a bubbling crude |
| (Oil, that is, Texas tea, black gold) |
| G | D | |
| First thing you know, old Jed's a | millionaire |
| G | |
| Friends said, Jed, | move away from here |
| C | |
| Said that California was the place he ought to | be |
| D | G | |
| So he loaded up the truck and they moved to | Beverly |
| (Hills, that is, swimming pools and movie stars) |
| G | D | |
| Well, now it's time to say goodbye to Jed and all his | kin |
| G | |
| They would like to thank you folks for kindly dropping | in |
| C | |
| You're all invited back again to this | locality |
| D | G | |
| To have a | heaping helping of their | hospitality |
| G | |
| (Beverly Hillbillies, that's what they call 'em now |
| Nice folks, Y'all come back now, hear?) |

| D | G | |
| In 1814 we | took a little trip |
| A7 | D | |
| A- | long with Col. Jackson down the | mighty mississip' |
| G | |
| We took a little bacon and we | took a little beans |
| A7 | D | |
| And we | Caught the bloody British in a | town in New Orleans. |
| CHORUS |
| We fired our guns and the British kept a comin' |
| A7 | D | |
| There wasn't as many as there | was a while a- | go |
| We fired once more and they began to runnin' |
| A7 | D | |
| On down the Mississippi to the | Gulf of Mexi- | co. |
| We looked down the river and we see'd the British come |
| And there musta been a hund'erd of 'em beatin' on the drum |
| They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring |
| We stood beside our cotton bales and didn't say a thing. |
| CHORUS |
| Old Hick'ry said we could take 'em by su'prise |
| If we didn't fire our musket till we looked 'em in the eyes |
| We held our fire till we see'd their faces well |
| Then we opened up with squirrel guns and really gave 'em ... Well - |
| REPEAT 1ST CHORUS |
| 2ND CHORUS |
| Yeah! they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles |
| A7 | D | |
| And they ran through the bushes where a | rabbit couldn't | go |
| They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em |
| A7 | D | |
| On down the Mississippi to the | Gulf of Mexi- | co. |
| We fired our cannon till the barrel melted down |
| So we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round |
| We filled his head with cannonballs and powdered his behind |
| And when we touched the powder off, the 'gator lost his mind. |

| And it's such a pretty thing |
| But as he slips it on her finger |
| The choir begins to sing |
| Does your chewing gum lose its flavour |
| On the bedpost overnight |
| If your mother says don't chew it |
| Do you swallow it in spite |
| Can you catch it on your tonsils |
| Can you heave it left and right |
| Does your chewing gum lose its flavour |
| On the bedpost overnight |
| Now the nation rise is one |
| To send their only son |
| Up to the White House |
| Yes, the nation's only White House |
| To voice their discontent |
| Unto the Pres-I-dent |
| They pawn the burning question |
| What has swept this continent |
| (Lonnie speaks) |
| If tin whistles are made of tin |
| What do they make fog horns out of |
| Boom, boom |
| Does your chewing gum lose its flavour |
| On the bedpost overnight |
| If your mother says don't chew it |
| Do you swallow it in spite |
| Can you catch it on your tonsils |
| Can you heave it left and right |

| NOTES: |
| -i wouldn't put too much effort into getting it to sound exactly like leadbelly for a |
| reasons: he's playing a 12 string and so has the octave-high drones on every string, he |
| likely playing a guitar tuned at least a full step down or possessive of poor quality |
| heads that slipped constantly with the travel he did, and the original recording was |
| on wax cylinder so the fidelity is considerably less than perfect which gives it that |
| rough acoustic blues edge but makes it a pain to mimic. plus blues tradition was more |
| on individual artists giving their own touches to a lot of communal traditional songs, |
| fool around with it and make a version you can really call your own. |
| -the first instance of the IV chord (here an A) in the verses is always a 7th, but the |
| instance is not. the recording was too old and grainy for me to be 100% certain of this, |
| the second instance is only held for a split second anyway so i doubt anyone will |
| if you like to play it faster you can probably get away with the old blues trick of |
| the A chord instead of actually playing it by just hitting (x022xx), (x02xxx) or any |
| simple voicing of A. |
| -for a nice, subtle variation you can substitute Gsus (320033) for the G wherever you |
| didn't experiment with how this sounds in other keys with other suspended chords because |
| supposed to be writing an essay for literature class and i'm really just tabbing this to |

| When | I was just a | wee little lad | Full of health and joy |
| G | D | E | A7 | |
| My | father homeward | came one night And | gave to me a | toy |
| D | A7 | D | G | |
| A won | der to be | hold it was with ma | ny colors bri | ght |
| G | D | E7 | A7 | |
| And the | moment I laid | eyes on it. It be | came my hearts de | light |
| Chorus: |
| D | A7 | D | G | |
| It went | zip when it | moved, bop when it stopped | and whir when it st | ood still |
| G | D | A7 | D | |
| I n | ever knew just | what it was and I | guess I never | will |
| The first time that I picked it up I got a big surprise |
| For right on the bottom were two big buttons that looked like big green |
| eyes. |
| I first pushed one, then the other, then I twisted its lid |
| And when I put it down again, here is what it did. |
| Chorus |
| It first marched left, then marched right, then marched under a chair. |
| And when I looked where it had gone, it wasn't even there |
| I started to cry, but my daddy laughed for he knew that I would find |
| When I looked around, my marvellous toy, just a'chugging from behind. |
| Chorus |
| Well, the years have gone by too swiftly it seems, I now have my own |
| little boy |
| And yesterday, I gave to him my marvelous little toy. |
| His eyes nearly popped right out of his head, he gave a squeal of glee |
| Neither one of us knows just what it is, but he loves it just like me |
| Chorus |
| I've been doing this song for MANY years and (if I remember correctly |
| without my guitar in hand) generally play it in C but the chord progression |
| is simple enough to allow it to be played in whatever key fits your vocal |
| range. |

| 1. This ole | house once knew my children |
| C7 | F | |
| This ole | house once knew my wife |
| G7 | |
| This ole | house was home and comfort |
| C | F | C | |
| as we | fought the | storms of | life |
| C | |
| This ole | house once rang with laughter |
| C7 | F | |
| This ole | house heard many shouts |
| G7 | |
| Now she | trembles in the darkness |
| C | |
| When the lightnin' walks | about |
| F | |
| CH: Ain't a-gonna | need this house no longer |
| C | |
| Ain't a-gonna | need this house no more |
| G7 | |
| Ain't got | time to fix the shingles |
| C | G7 | C7 | |
| Ain't got | time to | fix the | floor |
| F | |
| Ain't got | time to oil the hinges |
| C | |
| Nor to | mend the window pane |
| G7 | |
| Ain't a-gonna | need this house no longer |
| C | |
| I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the | saints |
| 2. This ole house is a-gettin' shaky |
| This ole house is a-gettin' old |
| This ole house lets in the rain |
| This ole house lets in the cold |
| On my knees I'm gettin' chilly |
| But I feel no fear nor pain |
| 'Cause I see an angel peekin' |
| Through a broken window pane |
| 3. This ole house is afraid of thunder |
| This ole house is afraid of storms |
| This ole house just groans and trembles |
| When the night wind flings its arms |
| This old house is gettin' feeble |
| This ole house is needin' paint |
| Just like me its tuckered out |
| But I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints |
| 4. This ole house dog lies a-sleepin' |
| He don't know I'm gonna leave |
| Else he'd wake up by the fireplace |
| And he'd sit there and howl and grieve |
| But my huntin' days are over |
| Ain't gonna hunt the coon no more |
| Gabriel done brought in my chariot |
| When the wind blew down the door |
