Jerry Garcia – Hopalong Peter (Guitar)

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:
