REQ: Chug a lug by Roger Miller

[HeelsFans]

CHUG-A LUG (Roger Miller)

Grape wine in a Mason jar, homemade and brought to school by a friend of mine
after class,
Me and him and this other fool decide that we'll drink up what's left.
Chug-a-lug, so we helped ourselves, first time for everything, um, my ears
still ring.
Chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug. Make you want to holler hy-de-ho, burns your tummy,
don't you know. Chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug.
4-H and FFA on a field trip to the farm. Me and a friend sneak off behind this
big old barn
Where we undercovered a covered up moonshine still and we thought we'd drink
our fill.
I swallowed it with a smile. I run ten miles. Chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug. Make you
want to holler hy-de-ho,
Burns your tummy, don't you know. Chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug.
Jukebox and a sawdust floor, something like I ain't never seen and I'm just
going on fifteen,
But with the help of my finagling uncle I get snuck for the first taste of sin.
I said I never had a big old sip, I done a double back flip.
Chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug. Make you want to holler hy-de-ho, burns your tummy,
don't you know. Chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug.

The last verse definately makes more sense--and it happens to be
the way that I remember the song lyrics..
And this is perhaps split-up a little easier to read..

Anyway,...there you go..

As a lifetime southern boy and Roger Miller fan... I must say, "Man, you're
REAL close". May I *respectfully* submit these for your consideration. I
could be wrong and you right, this is just how I remember it.... Not
trolling for a war here, jus' havin' sum fun...

"Howdy Ho!"
"Hidey-ho!" (like Cab Calloway sang it)

Chug-a-lug, so help thyself

Chug-a-lug, so I hepped myseff (southern for "helped myself" of course)

Where we uncovered,,, Uncovered a moonshine still
Where we uncovered a covered-up moonshine still

>Anyway,...there you go..

I love it... what a great NG...
