Greg Brown - Hacklebarney Tune lyrics

Hop in my Valiant, hit Hwy 1 Head on down to Hacklebarney, have me some fun Up over that hill, here's what I'll do Set there and play this old music with you You are my grandpa, I'm your grandson 50 years between us, feels more like one We're old as the hills and yound as the dew When I set there and play this old music with you Goin' down yonder. Here rattler here When you and I were young Maggie preacher and the bear And that one we can't remember that we always do When I set there and play this old music with you And when we've departed this music will ring It's part of the red dust, part of everything Something of us I know will be here WHere music is ringing, heaven is near Jeeminy Criminy, where does life go? Somewhere down in the holler I know Where you threw your old boot Where the whip-poor-will flew Where I set there and play this old music with you-hoo-hoo
