By the hon--ey--suckle vine

I need to give my old hoss a rest

And you know they ain't no use

VERSE TWO
Ab       C#                Ab
Hear the cricketts singin' softly
      Eb7             Ab
Never heard a sweeter sound
             C#                 Ab
And you know cricketts do their singin'
        Eb7                Ab
By just rubbin' their legs around
