Don't Start Courtin' In A Hot Rod Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Don't start courtin' in a hot rod,
but in a [D]buggy like your [G]mom and [C]dad.
How can you whisper sweet love words
when you [D]can't hear nothin' that's [G]said?
I [C]love to hear the clop
of old [F]Aubin's feet.
I [D]love to hear twin pipes
a [G]-roarin' down the street.
[C]Don't start courtin' in a hot rod,
but in a [D]buggy like your [G]mom and [C]dad.
My little Molly,
[G]you're sure growin' [C]up.
Seems only yesterday
that [D]you were just a [G]pup.
A [C]young man is callin',
he [F]should be on his way
[C]When he comes to meet me,
I [D]can [G]hear you [C]say
Don't start courtin' in a hot rod
But in a [D]buggy like your [G]mom and [C]dad
How can you whisper sweet love words
When you [D]can't hear nothin' but [G]sad?
I [C]love to hear the clop
of old [F]Doblin's feet
I [D]love to hear twin pipes
[G]roarin' down the street
[C]Don't start courtin' in a hot rod
But in a [D]buggy like your [G]mom and [C]dad[F]
[F#dim][G][C][Am]
[C][Am][G][C][G]
[C]Hey there, Dad, start get[G]tin' cool
[C]I don't dig datin' when
[D]you went to sch[G]ool
It's [C]the middle of summer
and I'm [F]anything but cool
[C]I wanna meet this hot rock
and [G]tell him the [C]rule
Don't start portin' in a hot rod
Put in a [D]boogie like your [G]mom and [C]dad
How can you whisper sweet love words
when you [D]can't hear nothing but [G]sand?
I [C]love to hear the clop
of old [F]Dobbin's feet.
I [D]love to hear twin pipes
[G]roaring down the [C]street.
Don't slack -courtin' in a hot rod,
but in a [D]buggy like your [G]mom and [C]dad.
[F][D][F#dim][D]
[G][C][D][G]
[C]
Everything is ready
for your [G]young man [C]to call
The mare's all harnessed to the [D]buggy
and [G]all [C]I can hear him say,
[F]hoppin' molasses
This [C]rig is the end,
but where [G]do you put the [C]gas?
Don't start portin' in a hot rod
But in a [D]buggy like your [G]mom and [C]dad
How can you whisper sweet love words
when you [D]can't hear nothin' that's [G]said?
I [C]love to hear the clop of old [F]Aubin's feet.
I [D]love to hear twin pipes
[G]pourin' down the street.
[C]Don't start courtin' in a hot rod,
but in a [D]boggie like your [G]mama's [Em]got![C]
