DOOLEY

Recorded by Porter Wagoner

[D] Dooley was a [G] good old man - he [D] lived below the [A7] mill

[D] Dooley had two [G] daughters and a [A7] forty gallon [D] still

One girl watched [G] the boiler - the [D] other watched the [A7] spout

[D] Mama corks the [G] bottles when old [A7] Dooley sets 'em [D] out.

Refrain:

[D] Dooley, steppin' up a holler [G]

Dooley, tryin' to make a dollar [D]

Dooley, gimme a swaller [A7]

And I'll pay you back some-[D] day.

The revenooers came 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/ton).

Refrain:

I remember very well the day old Dooley died

The women all felt sorry and the men sat around and cried

Now Dooley's on that mountain - he lies there all alone

They put a jug beside 'im and a barrel for a stone.

Refrain:
