Feast Here Tonight

Traditional

Key: A

AThere's a rabbit in the log and I ain't got my dog
 How will I get him I Eknow
 I'll Aget me a briar and twist it in his hair
 That Eway I'll get him I Aknow
 I Dknow (yes I know) I Aknow (I surely know)
 That's how I'll get him I Eknow
 I'll Aget me a briar and twist in his hair
 That way I'll Eget him I Aknow

I'll build me a fire and I'll cook that old hare

Roll him in the flames and make him brown

Have a feast here tonight while the moon is shining bright

And find me a place to lie down

To lie down (to lie down) to lie down (to lie down)

Find me a place to lie down

Have a feast here tonight while the moon is shining bright

And find me a place to lie down

I'm going down that track with my coat and my bag

Soles on my shoes are nearly gone

A little ways ahead there's a farmer's shed

That's where I'll rest my weary bones

Weary bones (weary bones) weary bones (you lazy bones)

That's where I'll rest my weary bones

A little way's ahead there's a farmer's shed

That's where I'll rest my weary bones

Good Ole Mountain Dew

traditional

Key: A

 There's a Avending machine

down the road here from me

 where you Dput in a quarter or Atwo

You put your money in

and before you begin

 you're chugging that Egood ole mountain Adew

They call it that ole mountain dew

And them that refuse it are few

I'll hush up my mug if you'll fill up my jug

With that good ole mountain dew

My uncle Mort he's sawed off and he's short

He measures bout four foot two

But he thinks he's a giant when you give him a pint

Of that good old mountain dew

My brother Bill's got a house on the hill

where he buys it by the case or two

And the buzzards in the sky get so sick they can't fly

from smelling that good ole mountain dew

He ran it to the Lord knows where

Oh me, oh my ran it to the Lord knows where

All You Fascists Bound To Lose

Woody Guthrie

Key: G

 I'm gonna Gtell all you fascists,

you may be surprised

CPeople all over this world
 are getting Gorganized
 You fascists are bound to Glose
DAll you fascists are bound to lose

You fascists are bound to lose

You fascists are bound to lose

You're bound to lose, you fascists

 Are bound to Glose

Race hatred cannot stop us,

this one thing I know

Poll tax and Jim Crow and greed

have got to go

People of every color marching

side by side

Marching across these fields

where a million fascists died

I'm going into this battle,

take my union gun

Gonna end this world of slavery

before this war is won
