Hillbilly

Hillbilly musicians don't play the drums They use instruments that they can strum Fiddle or blow Why do they do this? I don't know It must make a unique noise When accompanied by Fiddle, Banjo, Guitar and boys Singing as nobody sang With that country music twang By their side, a bottle of Whisky and Rye While watching those Southern Belles pass by With a Hi-dee-hi and a Do si do Strum those strings And away we go The fiddler, fiddling Like a man possessed The girls look stunning In their country best With lots of clapping Foot stomping too There's no rapping It's not the thing to do It's called a Hoedown Where you'll have a blast Its world renown Sure to make you gasp The atmosphere and music It will make you dance and sing You will become hooked On this country music thing
