Stay All Night
verse 1
Intro: built around A chord + hammer on 4th string at 4th fret, E chord
hammer on 5th string at 4th fret.
[A]Can't go home if you're going by the mill
Cause the[E] bridge' washed out at the bottom of the hill
[A]Big Creek's up, Little Creek's level,
[E]Plow my corn with a double shovel
Chorus
[A]Stay all night, stay a little longer
[E]Dance all night, dance a little longer
[A]Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner
[E]Don't see why you can't stay a little longer.
v2
Sitting in the window, singing to my love
Slop bucket fell from the window up above
Mule and the grasshopper eatin ice cream
mule got sick, so they laid him on the green
v3
You ought to see my Blue Eyed Sally
She lives way down on Shinbone Alley
Number on the gate, the number on the door
The next house over is the grocery store.
(additional verse from live performance)
Grab your partner, pat her on the head
If she don't like biscuits, feed her cornbread
Girls around Big Creek, 'bout half grown
Jump on a man like a dog on a bone
