(Jack Holmes)

Down in old Kentucky
|
Where horseshoes are lucky
|
There's a village smithy
|
Standin' under the chestnut tree
|
Hear the hammer knockin'
|
See the anvil rockin'
|
He sings the boogie blues
|
While he's hammerin' on the shoes
|
See the hot sparks a-flyin'
|
Like Fourth of July-in'
|
He's even got the horses cloppin'
|
Pop, down the avenue
|
Folks love the rhythm
|
The clang-bangin' rhythm
|
You'll get a lot o' kicks
|
Out of the Blacksmith Blues
