It's springtime in the mountains and I'm full of mountain dew
|
I can't even read my catalog the way I used to do
|
I'm a sittin' in that little shed just right back off the house
|
Here comes ol' Jake with all the hounds but he's gonna hear me shout
|
Oh I won't go huntin' with you Jake but I'll go chasin' wimmin'
|
So put them hounds back in the pen and quit that silly grinnin'
|
Moon is bright and I'm half tight my life's just beginnin'
|
I won't go huntin' with you jake but I'll go chasin' wimmin'
|
|
Let's go down to the meetin' house and wait till they start home
|
Them gals that live on Possum Creek will always leave alone
|
We'll run 'em down the corn row them sassy little misses
|
We'll scare them pretty gals to death we'll stop and blow 'em kisses
|
Oh I won't go huntin'...

|
Now wash your face and comb your hair it's darn near time to start
|
But let me tell you fore you go there's no one that's got my heart
|
Don't chase the one with the yellow hair that wears the dress of green
|
Well that sweet thing belongs to me I know she's past sixteen
|
Oh I won't go huntin'...
|
|
Now I was headed for the general store when a silly thing I seen
|
They make 'em in the city it's called a magazine
|
I turned to page 32 and look at what I found
|
Them gals wear clothes that we ain't seen beneath them gigham gowns
|
Oh I won't go huntin'...
|
I won't go huntin' with you jake but I'll go chasin' wimmin'
