Hot Rod Boogie

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                                        Cstyle='font-size:1px;color:#ffffff;'>
Well it goes up the hill and the motor never even whinesstyle='font-size:1px;color:#ffffff;'>
 
 
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                                        Cstyle='font-size:1px;color:#ffffff;'>
Well it goes up the hill and the motor never even whinesstyle='font-size:1px;color:#ffffff;'>
 
 
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

SONG HISTORY & INFORMATION

None as of yet...

Original country music has its own unique sound 
and style.  It unfortunately began to drift away
from its long standing traditional roots and moved 
toward a pop or soft rock sound in the mid-Eighties.

While its understandable that recording companies 
are in business to make a profit, they chose to 
commit all resources to the new trend and bury the past. 
What they failed to understand or decided to ignore 
is the fact that during that time, there was a 
huge demand for the established artists, such as 
Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, Charley Pride, 
George Jones, Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton 
to name a few.
