Chorus:
C                             F
I want a barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
            C                              G7
Won't you play for me a down home country song
            C                       F
Cause when I kick my shoes off and I kick my blues off
        C              G7                  C
With a barefoot ballad you just can't go wrong

           F
Give me a honk tonk fiddle with a guitar
                    C
in the middle of a melody
D7                                       G7
Humming like a fountain swinging out on Smokey Mountain

Chorus

         C
Now the big toe's connected to the two toe
And the two toe's connected to the three toe
           F
And the three toe's connected to the four toe
         C
And the four toe's connected to the five toe
         G7
And the five toe and away we go

Chorus

Now the big toe's connected to the two toe
And the two toe's connected to the three toe
And the three toe's connected to the four toe
And the four toe's connected to the five toe
And the five toe and away we go

C                            F
I wanna barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
            C
Won't you play for me
(Play for who play for him play for her)
  G7               C
A barefoot ballad song
