High Lonesome Sound (Peter Rowan) Intro:D A E A A Well get you father, get your mother, A Get your sister get your brother, E Aunt Lucy, gonna show Uncle John. E How to do the boogie woogie E While the kissin' cousin chasin' A Chicken out on the old back lawn. A Y'all come with one another, A Just a-go a little further, E If the schoolbus don't brake down. E Campfires burnin', E In the night my heart is yearning A For the sight of the ole campground. CHORUS D A And that High Lonesome Sound D E When the evenin' sun goes down, D A I'll be crawlin' on the ground, E A When I hear a fiddle play that High Lonesome Sound. Well bring along your lawn chair For sittin' in the fresh air Around the cooler full of beer and watch the show. There's clog dancin', horses prancin', Syncopated music playin', Girls lookin pretty,don't you know. Ah, look at old man Pappy, He's feelin' kind of snappy Seems like he just don't care, That he’s over 93 He's as spry as he can be Dancin' to the music in the air. Chorus Well young 'uns, old ones Lookin' like they're havin' fun Enjoyin' the country review Tellin' jokes to all the folks How the water beaker? meter? broke And how this grass got blue. Hey Mr. Fiddle man Play us all a little jam now Na na na... And that's the way Monroe says Uncle Pen's on him to play Ridin' on the back of a mule. Chorus I hear a fiddle play that High Lonesome Sound
