Verse 1
(F major) (E major) Rattler was a fine old (F major) dog,
fine as (C major) he could be
Trap a possum in a hollow log
and never leave him (F major) be
Hey Rattler, (C major) hey Rattler, hey
Come on
Rattler from the barn, hey
Rattler (F major)
(E major) Grandma had a yellow hen,
(C major) we (F major) set her as you (C major) know
Set her on three buzzard eggs
and she hatched out one old (F major) crow
Hey, rattler, hyah, (F minor) hyah,
(F major) hey, (C major) rattler, hyah
Come on, rattler, from the barn,
hey, rattler, hyah
(F major) Grand (E major) (F major) pa (E major) had a mewly (F major) cow,
she was mewly when (C major) she was born
Took a jaybird forty years
to fly from horn to horn
(F major) Hey, (D minor) rattler, (F major) hyah, hyah,
(C major) hey, rattler, hyah
Come on, rattle up from the barn,
hey, rattle ahead (F major)
(E major) Well, if I (F major) had a needle and thread
as fine as I could (C major) sew
I'd sew my sweetheart till the back
and down the road I (F major) go
Hey, rattle, hyah, hyah, hey,
rattle ahead (C major)
Come on, rattle up from the barn,
hey, rattle ahead (F major)
Hear a rattler shout,
hear a rattler (C major) shout
Come on rattler from the barn,
hear a rattler (F major) shout
Last (E major) night I (F major) saw a big fat coon
climb up in a (C major) tree
Went and got ol' rattler
to get him down for (F major) me
But rattler wouldn't do it
because he liked that (C major) coon
I saw him walking paw in paw
a little bit lighter than (F major) me
Hey rattler, hyup, hyup, hey rat (C major) tler, hyup
Come on rattler from the barn,
hey rattler, (F major) hyup
Hey rattler, hyup, hyup,
hey rattler, (C major) hyup
Come on rattler from the barn,
hey rattler, (F major) hyup
Woof woof! (F major)
(F major)
