    Here's a great old quick-step shotgun song my brother introduced me to. It is really hillarious, especially when you read it (or sing it) out loud. The recording has shotgun blasts in it at appropriate times. I'm trying to keep with the rules by showing the link where you can see the words to "Shotgun Boogie" by Tennessee Ernie Ford. You can probably find an mp3 recording online to download.

    SHOTGUN BOOGIE
    (Tennessee Ernie Ford)

    LYRICS:

    There it stands in the corner with the barrel so straight
    I looked out the window and over the gate
    The big, fat rabbits are a-jumpin' in the grass
    Wait'll they hear my old shotgun blast

    Shotgun Boogie, I done saw your tracks
    Look out Mr. Rabbit when I cock my hammer back
    Well, over on the ridge is a scaly bark
    Hick'ry nuts so big you can see 'em in the dark
    The big fat squirrels they scratch and they bite
    I'll be on that ridge before daylight

    Shotgun Boogie, all I need is one shot
    Look out bushy tail, tonight you'll be in the pot
    Well, I met a pretty gal, she was tall and thin
    I asked her what she had, she said: "A Fox Four-Ten"
    I looked her up and down and said: "Boy, this is love"
    So we headed for the brush to shoot a big fat dove

    Shotgun Boogie, boy the feathers flew
    Look out Mister Dove when she draws a bead on you
    I sat down on a log, took her on my lap She said,
    "Wait a minute, bub, you got to see my Pap
    He's got a sixteen-gauge choked down like a rifle
    He don't like a man that's a-gonna trifle"

    Shotgun Boogie, draws a bead so fine
    Look out big boy, he's loaded all the time
    Well, I called on her Pap like a gentleman oughta
    He said: "No brush hunter's gonna get my daughter"
    He cocked back the hammer right on the spot
    When the gun went off, I outran the shot

    Shotgun Boogie, I wanted wedding bells I'll be back little gal, when your pappy runs out of shells

    Alot of guns. Even mentions "A case of ammo with that Berdan primer
    from some East Bloc Nation, that no longer needs them."
