[Verse 1]
[G]Tel[Eb]l eve[A]ry[D]body[G], [D]tell
[A]everybod[D]y, tell everybody,
there's gonna be a hoot tonight.
Everybody sing it!
Tell everybody, [A]tell every[D]body, tell everybody,
there's gonna be a hoot tonight.
Peter,
Paul and
[G]Mary will be there singing,
[D]blowing in the wind.
The
[A]Christie's will sing green, green.
What about old
Blue?
[G]I can hardly wait till
George
[D]Hamilton begins [A]to tell [E]about
that town called
[A]Abile[D]ne
Abilene,
[G]Abilene, prettiest town [D]I've ever seen
A little like
[E]Waco, only seen it in a [A]magazine
But I love
Abi[D]lene, my
[G]Abile[D]ne
Tell everybody, [A]tell [D]everybody, tell everybody,
there's gonna be a hoot tonight
The
Kingston [G]trio will be talking
by [D]desert feet
Tom
[A]Dooley and the
Reverend
Mr.
[D]Black
Who's that?
Bud and
[G]Travis get them stomping with
their hallelu[D]jah feet
While the [E]limelighters go [A]off a beat
[D]Fried chicken cross the road
Hey la -dee [A]-la -dee -lo
Cuz the fireman has red suspenders
Hey, la -dee [D]-la -dee -lo, tell everybody, [A]tell every[D]body,
tell everybody there's gonna be a hoot tonight
You [G]can sing along when the
[D]weavers sing their song
And
Ralph
Pettis [A]sings about our strident [D]glow
It's as [G]quiet as a mouse with
Joan
[D]Pius in the house
While we [E]listened to the
[A]Smothers
Brothers joke
[D]When
John
Henry was a little baby
Yeah, he was sitting on his daddy's knee
[A]Well, he pic[D]ked up a hammer
And [G]a handful of nails
And [D]then he nailed his daddy [A]to a [D]tree
Oh [A]my, that's smart
[D]Tell everybody, tel[A]l everybody,
[D]tell everybody
There's gonna be a hoot tonight
Once again now
Tell everybody, [A]tell every[D]body,
tell everybody
There's [A]gonna be a hoot to[D]night!
