GROUND HAWG As recorded by The Everly Brothers (From the 1962 Album INSTANT PARTY!) [Intro] [Verse 1] Whet up your knife and whistle up the dog Whet up your knife and whistle up the dog We’re going to the hollow for to catch a ground hawg Ground hawg [Verse 2] Too many rocks and too many logs Too many rocks and too many logs To many rocks for to catch a ground hawg Ground hawg [Verse 3] Up come Barry with a ten-foot pole Up come Barry with a ten-foot pole Pushed it down that ground hawg hole Ground hawg [Interlude] [Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] Took him home and tanned his hide Took him home and tanned his hide Made the best shoe strings you’ve ever tied Ground hawg [Verse 5] Old lame Sal came skipping to the hall Old lame Sal came skipping to the hall Got enough whistle they could feed ’em all Ground hawg [Verse 6] Meat in the cupboard and hide on the churn Meat in the cupboard and hide on the churn That ain’t ground hawg I’ll be durned Ground hawg [Outro]
