Standin 'in here on the corner with the barrel so straight
I looked over the fence and over the gate
Picked a fat rabbit, he was sittin' in the grass
Wait’ll he hears my whole shotgun blast
Shotgun boogie, oh shotgun boogie
Oh, shotgun boogie makes me boogie woogie all the time
Well, I met a pretty girl, she was tall and thin
Asked her what she had, she said a Vox 410
I looked her up and down and said boy this is love
We headed for the bush to shout a big fat dove
Shotgun boogie, oh shotgun boogie
Look out mister rabbit because they’re gunnin' you
Oh, look out…
Sat down on a log and took her in my lap
She said now wait a minute honey, you got to see my pap
He’s got a sixteen guage tall gun like a rifle, he don’t like men that’s gonna
trifle
Shotgun boogie makes me boogie woogie all the time
Well, I called on her pappy like a gentleman oughta
He said no brush hunters gonna get my daughter
He cocked that gun right on the spot
But when the gun went off I outran that shot
Oh, shotgun boogie, oh shotgun boogie
I wanted wedding bells and not your pappy’s shells
Oh, shotgun boogie makes me boogie woogie all the time
Oh, he was shooting low honey
Oh, he got me on that second shot, ooh, I got it but I’ll be back
I only wanna talk to you
