PIG IN A PEN
Recorded by The Stanley Brothers

CAPO: 2nd FRET/KEY: A/PLAY: G

CHORUS: [G] I got a pig at home in a pen,
Corn to feed 'im [C] on.
All I need's a [G] pretty little girl
To [D7] feed 'im when I'm [G] gone.

[G] Goin' on the mountain
To sow a little [C] cane
Raise a barrel of [G] sorghum
To sweeten [D7] ol' Liza [G] Jane. CHORUS

Black cloud's a-risin' - surest sign of rain
Get the old gray bonnet on - Little Liza Jane. CHORUS

Yonder comes that gal of mine - how d'you think I know?
Can tell by that gingham gown - hangin' down so low. CHORUS

Bake them biscuits, lady - bake 'em good n' brown
When you get them biscuits baked - we're Alabamy bound. CHORUS

Note. Two Additional verses from: A HOOTIN' HOOTENANY - The Van Dykes

When she sees me comin' - she wrings her hands and cries
Yonder comes the sweetest boy - that ever lived or died.

Now, when she sees me leavin' - she wrings her hands and cries
Yonder goes the meanest boy - that ever lived or died.
