Hot Rod Boogie
By Faron Young
C
Well I had an old Ford and it took a chill
It faded and sputtered as it made it up the hill
F
The motor died out and the thing wouldn't crank
C
Till I slipped a little hadicol in the tank
F C
She did the hot rod boogie and now it runs so fine
G7 C
Well it goes up the hill and the motor never even whines
Now I had a dear friend and he bought him a Dodge
We jumped in the thing and we started to the lodge
F
The motor died out and it stood still
C
And then with hadicol we did fill
F C
She did the hot rod boogie and now it runs so fine
G7 C
Well it goes up the hill and the motor never even whines
Now me and my wife had a fox tail dog
We crossed that river on a hickory log
F
The log it broke and I fell through the tin
C
And I lost my wife with a jug of gin
F C
She did the hot rod boogie as it sank full load
G7 C
Well I love my wife but I hate to see that gin go
Now I had a little rooster and he couldn't even crow
He got so weak that he couldn't hardly go
F
He wouldn't scratch grass or he wouldn't eat seed
C
So we slipped a little hadicol in his feed
F C
And then he did the hot rod boogie as he struts so fine
G7 C
Well he crows in the morning as he boogies on down the line
Now I had an old mule he was oh so poor
The collar rubbed his shoulder and it got sore
F
The mule got sick and couldn't even bray
C
So we slipped a little hadicol in his hay
F C
He did the hot rod boogie and now he plows so fine
G7 C
Well he boogies on up the row as he plows on down the line
