Hillbilly Rock Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
It [G]comes from Mississippi,
and down in Alabam'
Creepin' like a fever all across the land
From [G]deep in the Delta on the Louisiana shore
The people got to have it,
they want to hear some more
It's the [C]hillbilly rock, beat it with a drum
[G]Playin' them guitars like shootin from a gun
[C]Keepin' up the rhythm, steady as a clock
[D]Doin' a little thing called the hillbilly [G]rock

[Verse 2]
Some [G]say it came from Memphis
down in Tennessee
Or it drifted in from Georgia about 1953
Just as [G]long as it's greasy, as long as it's fast
As long as it's pumpin' honey, it's gonna last
It's the [C]hillbilly rock, beat it with a drum
[G]Playin' them guitars like shootin' from a gun
[C]Keepin' up the rhythm, steady as a clock
[D]Doin' a little thing called the hillbilly [G]rock

[Solo 1]
[C][C][G][G]
[C][C][D][D]
[G][G]

[Verse 3]
Way [G]back in old Kentucky
where the bluegrass grows
Through the Carolinas on them dirt red roads
[G]Burnin like a fire runnin' wild in the woods
From Arkansas to Texas, it sounds so good
It's the [C]hillbilly rock, beat it with a drum
[G]Playin' them guitars like shootin' from a gun
[C]Keepin' up the rhythm, steady as a clock
[D]Doin' a little thing called the hillbilly [G]rock

[Verse 4]
So when the [G]heat starts to risin'
and you gotta blow some steam
Take a ride down the river,
you'll see just what I mean
The [G]juke joint's jumpin', when that cat goes on
The whole place is shakin',
there's a something goin' on
It's the [C]hillbilly rock, beat it with a drum
[G]Playin' them guitars like shootin' from a gun
[C]Keepin' up the rhythm, steady as a clock
[D]Doin' a little thing called the hillbilly [G]rock
[D]Doin' a little thing called the hillbilly [G]rock
[D]Doin' a little thing called the hillbilly [G]rock
[G]
