(Stuart Hamblen)
Oh, it`s springtime in the mountains and I`m full of mountain dew
Can`t even read my catalog like I used to do
I`m a sittin` in that little shed that`s right back off the house
Here comes ol` Jake with all the hounds but he`s gonna hear me shout.
I won`t go huntin` with you Jake but I`ll go chasin` wimmin`
So put them hounds back in the pen and quit your silly grinnin`
Well, the moon is bright and I`m half tight my life is just beginnin`
I won`t go huntin` with you jake but I`ll go chasin` wimmin`.
Let`s go down to the meetin` house and wait till they start home
Them gals that live on Possum Creek will always leave alone
We`ll run `em down the corn row them sassy little misses
We`ll scare them pretty gals to death we`ll stop and blow `em kisses.
Well, I won`t go huntin` with you Jake but I`ll go chasin` wimmin`
So put them hounds back in the pen and quit your silly grinnin`
Well, the moon is bright and I`m half tight my life is just beginnin`
I won`t go huntin` with you jake but I`ll go chasin` wimmin`.

Now wash your face and comb your hair cause it`s darn near time to start
But let me tell you fore you go there`s no one that`s got my heart
Don`t chase that gal with the yellow hair and wearin` dress of green
Well that little gal belongs to me I know she`s past sixteen.
Oh. I won`t go huntin` with you Jake but I`ll go chasin` wimmin`
So put them hounds back in the pen and quit your silly grinnin`
Well, the moon is bright and I`m half tight my life is just beginnin`
I won`t go huntin` with you jake but I`ll go chasin` wimmin`.
Now I was headin` for the general store when a silly thing I`ve seen
They make `em in the city it`s called a magazine
I turned to page 32 and look at what I found
Them gals wear clothes that we ain`t seen beneath them gigham gowns
Oh, I won`t go huntin` with you Jake but I`ll go chasin` wimmin`
So put them hounds back in the pen and quit your silly grinnin`
Well, the moon is bright and I`m half tight my life is just beginnin`
I won`t go huntin` with you jake but I`ll go chasin` wimmin`...
