Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Go Jack-rabbit running through the wood
You had a good night and you feel real loose
Heard they got you going round the goose creek 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
You better go Jack-rabbit better start to run
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
Oh, Go Jack-rabbit running through the wood
You had a good night and you feel real loose
Heard they got you going round the goose creek shed
Trying to fill your belly full of buckshot lead
Oh, go Jack-rabbit get the cabbage patch
Farmer left the back porch door on the latch
Heard you coming and he got his gun
You better go Jack-rabbit better start to run
[Verse 4]
Go Jack-rabbit running through the wood
You had a good night and you feel real loose
Oh, gunfire breaking up the peaceful night
Jack-rabbit lying in the cold daylight
