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.

Well, I won't go hunting with you Jake but I'll go chasing women 
                                                          C

                                                       C  
Them gals that live on Possum Creek will always leave alone 
                                     C7            F

                                          C
