Hot Rod Boogie
recorded by Faron Young
written by Tillman Franks 

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
