Long Hot Summer Day
D
Gonna pick up some of them empties here
G
Just as soon as we know where they lay
D
Tied off of them jolly and leaving minds
G D
On a long hot summer day
For every day I work on the Illinois river
G
I get a half a day off with pay
D
All day long I am makïng up barges
G D
On a long hot summer day
Instrumental after each verse:DGDDDGDGD
Well I got me a gal in Pea-kin
She is a good old gal, Okay
I bet she is sitting a winder fan
On a long hot summer day
For every day I work on the Illinois river
Get a half a day off with pay
All day long I am making up barges
On a long hot summer day
Last night we had pork for supper
Today It will be chicken consume`
And a fruit jar full of iced tea
On a long hot summer day
For every day I work on the Illinois river
Get a half a day off with pay
All day long I am making up barges
On a long hot summer day
Well we put a man off in Beardstown
When we come down yesterday
Iam gonna off down at Alton
On a long hot summer day
For every day I work on the Illinois River
Get a half a day off with pay
All day long I am making up them barges
On a long hot summer day
D
For every day I work on the Illinois River
G
Get a half a day off with pay
D
All day long I am making up them barges
G D
On a long hot summer day
