CG
Waiting in the front yard sitting on a log,
FC
Single-shot rifle and a one-eyed dog
G
Yonder come the kinfolk, in the moonlight,
FGC
Louisiana Saturday night.
ChorusCG
Hey you get down the fiddle and you get down the bow
FC
Kick off your shoes and throw em on the floor,
G
Dance in the kitchen till morning light,
FGC
Louisiana Saturday night.
CG
My brother Bill and my other brother Jack,
FC
Belly full of beer and a possum in a sack,
G
Fifteen kids in the front porch light,
FGC
Louisiana Saturday night.
Repeat ChorusCG
When Kin folks leave and the kids get fed,
FC
Me and my woman, gonna sneak off to bed,
G
We'll have a little fun when we turn out the light,
FGC
Louisiana Saturday night
