Oh, it's springtime in the mountains and I'm full of mountain dew
                                          C
Can't even read my catalog like I used to do
                                         C7                F  
I'm a sitting in that little shed that's right back of the house
     G7                                                        C
Here comes ol' Jake with all the hounds but he's gonna hear me shout.

Chorus
C                                                              G7
Well, I won't go hunting with you Jake but I'll go chasing women
                                                          C 
So put them hounds back in the pen and quit your silly grinning
                                            C7              F  
Well, the moon is bright and I'm half tight my life is just beginning
  G7                                                 C
I won't go hunting with you Jake but I'll go chasing women.


C                                                           G7
Let's go down to the meeting house and wait till they start home
                                                       C 
Them gals that live on Possum Creek will always leave alone
                                     C7            F  
We'll run 'em down the corn row them sassy little misses
      G7                                                      C
We'll scare them pretty gals to death we'll stop and blow 'em kisses.

Chorus
C                                                              G7
Well, I won't go hunting with you Jake but I'll go chasing women
                                                          C 
So put them hounds back in the pen and quit your silly grinning
                                               C7              F  
Well, the moon is bright and I'm half tight my life is just beginning
  G7                                                 C
I won't go hunting with you Jake but I'll go chasing women.


C                                                                  G7
Now wash your face and comb your hair cause it's darn near time to start
                                                             C    
But let me tell you fore you go there's no one that's got my heart
                                                C7              F  
Don't chase that gal with the yellow hair and wearing dress of green
  G7                                                 C
Well that little gal belongs to me I know she's past sixteen.

Chorus
C                                                              G7
Well, I won't go hunting with you Jake but I'll go chasing women
                                                          C 
So put them hounds back in the pen and quit your silly grinning
                                               C7              F  
Well, the moon is bright and I'm half tight my life is just beginning
  G7                                                 C
I won't go hunting with you Jake but I'll go chasing women.


C                                                              G7
Now I was headin' for the general store when a silly thing I've seen
                                          C 
They make 'em in the city it's called a magazine
                                 C7      F  
I turned to page 32 and look at what I found
  G7                                                          C
Them gals wear clothes that we ain't seen beneath them gigham gowns

Chorus
C                                                              G7
Well, I won't go hunting with you Jake but I'll go chasing women
                                                          C 
So put them hounds back in the pen and quit your silly grinning
                                               C7              F  
Well, the moon is bright and I'm half tight my life is just beginning
  G7                                                 C
I won't go hunting with you Jake but I'll go chasing women.
