This part is played with all chords and starts when Randy Owen Says Cajun

[Chorus 1]
Oh, play me some mountain music
like grandma and grandpa used to play
Then I'll float on down the river
         E           A
to a   Ca-jun   hidea-way.

[Verse 1]
 A                         D
      Drift away like Tom     Sawyer
            A                 D
Ride a raft   with ol' Huck    Finn
           A              D
Take a nap   like Rip Van Winkle,
      G              E
daze     dreamin' A----gain.

[Chorus 2]
     A                         D
Oh,     play me some mountain     music
     A                                    D
like     grandma and grandpa used to play
           A                         D
Then I'll     float on down the riv----er
         Bm            E
to a Ca-----jun hidea----way.

[Verse 2]
  A                 D
   Swim across the     river
               A              D
Just to prove     that I'm a     man
               A             D
Spend the day     bein' lazy
      G                  E
Just     bein' nature's     friend

[Verse 3]
 A                    D
   Climb a long tall     hick'ry
               A                 D
Bend it over,     skinnin' cats
         A                             D
Playin'     baseball with chert rocks
        G                    E
Usin'     sawmill slabs for     bats

[Bridge]
Play some back-home come-on  music
that  comes from the heart
Play something with lots of feelin'
                      Bm               E
'cause that's where      music has to     start.

[Chorus]
      A                        D
Oh,     play me some mountain     music
       A                                   D
like     grandma and grandpa used to play
           A                        D
Then I'll     float on down the riv----er
         Bm           E
to a Ca-----jun hidea----waaaaaaaaaayy.
