Smokey Joe's Barbeque Lyrics by Johnny Horton
Johnny Horton Lyrics
(J. Horton, F. Horton)
Way down south, where the whippoorwills call
There’s gonna be a jubilee
Folks will come from miles around to share their company
There’s all-day singing and dinner on the ground
And when the day is through, there’s be sound contentment
At Smokey Joe’s barbeque
Refrain:
Smokey Joe’s barbeque, Smokey Joe’s barbeque
There’s always fun for ev’ryone at Smokey Joe’s barbeque
The string band plays “Turkey in the Hayâ€
They play it just for you
Your laughing be gay till the Judgement Day
At Smokey Joe’s barbeque
-Solo-
When the dogwoods bloom and the red birds sing
That’s a time, I love to see
When work is through and the crops laid by, I dream of reality
When you can lay around in the evening shades
Relax when the day is through
Just be dancin’, and be happy, at Smokey Joe’s barbeque
Refrain: -Solo- Refrain
[Thanks to Jobarnie for lyrics]
