Johnny Horton Lyrics
Gobbler, the Ole Houn' Dog Lyrics
(J. Horton, F. Horton)
When the moon comes over Old Smokey
I hear a lonesome hound-dog wail
I know, it�s time to grab my hat and coat
For Old Gobbler�s hit the trail
It�s up through the hollow and down through the draw
The pine-trees begin to sing
They ring out the music of an old fox chase
They know, this night will bring
Refrain:
Talk � Gobbler � talk
Talk � Gobbler � talk
That music echoes through my ears
Talk � Gobbler � talk
I yell, go � Gobbler � go, boy, as I hit the ground on a run
That old fox hound is a-picking �em up
I know, a race has just begun
I hear Old Gobbler as he crosses the creek
Down through the meadow and over the peak
He�s a-rollin� now, boy, hot on the trail
Picking up steam like the Fireball Mail
Refrain: -Solo-
I hear Old Gobbler as he talk�s to me
Sayin�, here he is now, boy, up a tree
I run to the spot, and lo and behold
There sits this Old Gobbler, still�s airin� to go
Refrain: - 2x
