There's a bonfire burning. Got Bocephus blaring
A                                                  E
louder than allowed out in our neck of the neighborhood.

If you wanna see follow me over the river through the woods.

When the bugs and the beer start biting, there's bound to be some friendly fighting

Usually little Becky Lee winds up jumpin up on somebody's hood, don't she dance good?
         B                    A                           E
Join the crowd gathered round  Over the river through the woods.

We'll do a little what we want after one long week of doin' what we should.

At first I thought she was kiddin when she mentioned skinny dipping.
                A                                                    E
She said follow me through the trees yes siree unless I misunderstood.
                 B                   A                               E
We'll splash and splish with the fish over the river and through the woods.

   A               C                    D                     E
That's my beer can next to her beer can next to my work pants up there on dry land.

That's my sore head layin' in my truck bed eyes blood shot red hearing what my mamma said.
