Hacklebarney Tune - Greg Brown

Hop in my Valiant, hit Hwy 1

Head on down to Hacklebarney, have me some fun

Up over that hill, here’s what I’ll do

Set there and play this old music with you

You are my grandpa, I’m your grandson

50 years between us, feels more like one

We’re old as the hills and yound as the dew

When I set there and play this old music with you

Goin' down yonder.

Here rattler here

When you and I were young Maggie preacher and the bear

And that one we can’t remember that we always do

When I set there and play this old music with you

And when we’ve departed this music will ring

It’s part of the red dust, part of everything

Something of us I know will be here

WHere music is ringing, heaven is near

Jeeminy Criminy, where does life go?

Somewhere down in the holler I know

Where you threw your old boot

Where the whip-poor-will flew

Where I set there and play this old music with you-hoo-hoo
