Louisiana Saturday Night - Mel McDaniel
[Verse]
Waiting in the [C] front yard sitting on a log, [G]
[F] Single-shot rifle and a [C] one-eyed dog
Yonder come the kinfolk, [G] in the moonlight,
[F] Louisiana [G] Saturday [C] night.
|[Chorus]
|[C] Hey you get down the fiddle and you [G] get down the bow
|[F] Kick off your shoes and [C] throw em on the floor,
|Dance in the kitchen till [G] morning light,
|[F] Louisiana [G] Saturday [C] night.
[Verse]
[C] My brother Bill and my [G] other brother Jack,
[F] Belly full of beer and a [C] possum in a sack,
Fifteen kids in the [G] front porch light,
[F] Louisiana [G] Saturday [C] night.
[Chorus]
[Verse]
[C] When Kin folks leave and the [G] kids get fed,
[F] Me and my woman, gonna [C] sneak off to bed,
We'll have a little fun when we [G] turn out the light,
[F] Louisiana [G] Saturday [C] night
|[Chorus] x2
|[C] Hey you get down the fiddle and you [G] get down the bow
|[F] Kick off your shoes and [C] throw em on the floor,
|Dance in the kitchen till [G] morning light,
|[F] Louisiana [G] Saturday [C] night.
