I Won't Go Hunting With you Jake
Recorded by Jimmy Dean
Written by Stuart Hamblen
 
C
Oh it's springtime in the mountains
                         G7
And I'm full of mountain dew
 
Can't even read my catalog
               C
Like I used to do
 
I'm a-setting in that little shed
             C7          F
That's right back of the house
       G7
Here's comes old Jake with all the hounds
                       C
But he's gonna hear me shout
 
C
Oh I won't go hunting with you Jake
                    G7
But I'll go chasing women
 
So put them hounds back in the pens
                    C
And quit your silly grinning
 
Well the moon is bright and I'm half tight
   C7             F
My life is just beginning
  G7
I won't go hunting with you Jake
                    C
But I'll go chasing women
 
 
Let's go down to the meeting house
                         G7
And wait till they start home
 
Them gals that live on Possum Creek
                   C
We'll always leave alone
 
We'll run them down the corn rows
     C7           F
Them sassy little misses
      G7
We'll scare them pretty gals to death
                         C
We'll stop and throw 'em kisses
 
Repeat #2
 
Now go wash your face and comb your hair
                              G7
'Cause it's darn near time to start
 
But let me tell you 'fore you go
                          C
There's one that's got my heart
 
Don't chase that gal with the yeller hair
    C7               F
And wears a dress of green
    G7
For that little gal belongs to me
                  C
I know she's past sixteen
 
Repeat #2
 
Now I was headed for the general store
                     G7
When a silly thing I seen
                
They make 'em in the city
              C
It's called a magazine
 
I turned to page thirty-two
    C7             F
And look at what I found
     G7
Them gals wear clothes that we ain't seen
                     C
Beneath them gingham gowns

Repeat #2
