	        Oh, A play me some mountain D music 
like A grandma and grandpa used to play D 
Then I'll A float on down the riv-Der 
to a Ca-Ejun hidea-Away. 
 
Verse 1: 
 
A Drift away like Tom D Sawyer 
Ride a raftA with ol' Huck D Finn 
Take a napA like Rip Van Winkle, 
daze G dreamin' a-Egain. 
 
Chorus 2--same chords as chorus one for the first 3 lines.  Then: 
 
to a Ca-Bmjun hidea-Eway. 
 
(guitar solo) 
 
Verse 2 (same chords as 1) 
 
Swim across the river 
Just to prove that I'm a man 
Spend the day bein' lazy 
Just bein' nature's friend 
 
v3 
 
Climb a long tall hick'ry 
Bend it over, skinnin' cats 
Playin' baseball with chert rocks 
Usin' sawmill slabs for bats 
 
Bridge: 
 
(also a capella, like first chorus, until you reach ''cause that's where..') 
 
Play some A back-home come-on D music 
that A comes from the heart D 
Play A something with lots of feel-Din' 
'cause that's where Bm music has to E start. 
 
(chorus 2) 
on last line '...a cajun hideaway aay-aay-aaaiiiaay' - then a drum solo  
ensues and the tempo increases--go back to the first chorus for the ending,  
but play all of the chords.
