Time To Un-hitch
Copyrighted by: Verne Garrison, November 11, 2011
Valley Park, Mo
Banjo tuned E, Capo 2, Key of D
Moderate tempo
D G D
Time to un-hitch, my dad would always say,
A
Come in, set down after a long, hard day
G D
He'd loosen a gallus on his Pay Day overalls
A D
Then look around at those four walls
He'd dip the tin cup into the water pail
Take a long draw, and then hang it on the nail
Must have been hundred ten in the shade out there today
My mom, little brother and I, knew that's what he'd say
Chorus:
Yep, time to un-hitch, he'd pull the other gallus down
Showing his broad tanned shoulders with muscles abound
Mom's fried taters pork shoulder, beans we'd hunker down
A fast scrub up and we'd all head to town
We'd take a five gallon can of fresh cream to Romer's Place
And get enough money for our groceries and the movie place
All the folks would visit at Frazer's Coffee Shop
We'd take in a 12 cent movie, it meant alot
Saturday night, our only trip to town, yes
Dad in his Pay Days' and Mom in her cotton dress
Us kids in the back seat of the Model A
Sun bleached hair and sun tanned that way
Chorus:
tag: Oh how we loved it that away...
