Waitin' in the front yard sittin' on a log 
  G                       D 
A single shot rifle and a one-eyed dog

Yonder come our kin folk in the moonlight

kick off your shoes and ya throw 'em on the floor 
                              A

My brother Bill and my other brother Jack 
Belly full of beer and a possom in a sack 
Fifteen kids in the front porch light

When the kin folk leave and the kids get fed 
me and my woman gonna slip off to bed 
have a little fun when we turn out the lights

Well, you get down the fiddle and you get down the bow 
kick off your shoes and ya throw 'em on the floor 
dance in the kitchen 'til the mornin' light

kick off your shoes and ya throw 'em on the floor 
dance in the kitchen 'til the mornin' light
