[Chorus 1] I want a barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad Won't you play for me a down home country song Because when I kick my shoes off and I kick my blues off With a barefoot ballad you just can't go wrong Give me a honk-tonk fiddle with a guitar in the middle and a melody Humming like a fountain swinging out on Smokey mountain [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] Now the big toe's connected to the two toes And the two toe's connected to the three toe And the three toe's connected to the four toe And the four toe's connected to the five toe And the five toe and away we go [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] [Outro] I want to barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad Won't you play for me a barefoot ballad song
