Daniel Boone took a rifle and a coonskin cap

       D            G             D            G
And he found an icy river, and he set a little trap

And he took a bite of jerky and he took a little nap

Well, I asked the local lover, and he told me what to do

        D                 G           D       G
He said learn the rockin' dances both old and new

         D                G           D        G
But it's hard to do those dances with two left feet

So, I've got to find a method that'll work for me
