G
Go jack-rabbit running through the woods
          G/B                 C
You had a good night and you feel real loose
A7
Heard they got you going round the goosecreek shed
          D7
Trying to fill your belly full of buckshot lead

G
Go jack-rabbit get the cabbage patch
       G/B                  C
Farmer left the back porch door on the latch
A7
Heard you coming and he got his gun
       D7                              G
Better go jack-rabbit better start to run

Chorus:
         C      C7                  G
Go jack-rabbit running through the woods
           C         A7                 D7
You had a good night and you feel real loose
G                        C        A7
Gunfire breaking up the peaceful night
G                         D7      G
Jack-rabbit lying in the cold daylight

Go jack-rabbit running through the wood
You had a good night and you feel real loose
Heard they got you going round the goosecreek shed
Trying to fill your belly full of buckshot lead

Go jack-rabbit get the cabbage patch
Farmer left the back porch door on the latch
Heard you coming and he got his gun
Better go jack-rabbit better start to run

Chorus:
Go jack-rabbit running through the wood
You had a good night and you feel real loose
Gunfire breaking up the peaceful night
Jack-rabbit lying in the cold daylight
