Hopalong Peter
Not For Kids Only
(Traditional)
D
Old Uncle Peter, he got tight
A
Started up to heaven one stormy night
D G
The road being rough and him not well
A
He lost, his way and he went to ...
Chorus:
D
Hopalong Peter where you goin'?
A
Hopalong Peter where you goin'?
D G
Hopalong Peter won't you bear in mind
A D
I ain't comin' back 'til the gooseberry time.
Old mother Hubbard and her dog were dutch
A bow-legged rooster and he hobbled on a crutch
The hen chewed tobacca and the duck drank wine
The goose played the fiddle on the pumpkin vine.
Chorus:
Down in the barn yard playin' seven up
The old tom cat and the little yellow pup
The old mother Hubbard she's a pickin' out the fleas
The rooster in the cream jar up to his knees.
Chorus:
I've got a sweet gal in this old town
If she weighs an ounce she weighs 700 pounds
Every time my sweet gal turns once around
The heels of her shoe make a hole in the, ground.
Chorus:
