Johnny Horton – Go And Wash Those Dirty Feet (Guitar)

C                            G7                 C
When I was a little boy bare-footed I'd like to go

                            D7                  G7
In the spring or summertime there was no ice or snow

     C                           F
When I was tired and nearly dead these are the words that momma said

C                            G7               C
Go and wash those dirty feet before you go to bed

C                               G7             C
When I would get out off school I could hardly wait

                               D7                 G7
I'd have my brogans in my hand before I'd hit the gate

    C                                   F
I'd romp and play till nearly dead that same old line momma always said

C                            G7               C
Go and wash those dirty feet before you go to bed

C                                          G7                       C
When winter's passed and the violets bloom and the springtime rolls around

                                  D7                  G7
My tiny feet got to itchin' so to touch the cool cool ground

    C                            F
But I'd remember what momma said those words still echo through my head

C                            G7               C
Go and wash those dirty feet before you go to bed

C                                    G7                C
I'd draw the water from the well and grab the old wash pan

                                 D7           G7
Just a-fussin' and a-fumin' like any ordinary man

    C                                F
But if I'd brushed them off instead momma would make my bottom red

C                            G7                   C
Go and wash those dirty feet before  you  go  to  bed
