Well I saw this song on the web but
cannot seem to find it again and
besides it was not transcribed with the
chords that I use, so here it is.
(verse)
[G]Dooley was a [C]good old man
He [G]lived below the [D]mill
[G[Dooley had two [C]daughters
And A [G]Forty [D]Gallon [G]still
One girl watched the [C]boiler
The [G]other weatched the [D]spout
[G]Mama corks the [C]bottles
When old [D]Dooley sets them [G]out
(refrain)
[G]Dooley, steppin' up a holler[C]
Dooley, tryin' to make a dollar[G]
Dooley, gimme a swaller[D]
And I'll pay you back some[G]day
(verse)
The revenooers came back one day
a-slippin' through the woods
Dooley kept behind them all
And never lost his goods
Dooley was a trader when into town he'd come
Sugar by the bushel and molasses by the tun
(refrain)
(verse)
I remember very well the day old Dooley died
The women all felt sorry and
The men sat sround and cried
Now Dooleys on that mountain he lies there all alone
They put a jug beside 'im and a barrel for a stone
(refrain)
