Slap Her Down Again Paw by Arthur Godfrey
Transcribed by DWdrummer67. This is an old tune my grandfather used to play for
us. It's not played on guitar, but the chord progression sounds correct to me.
Have fun with it.

Make her tell us more, paw… tell us where she's been (slap)

We don't want our neighbors talkin' 'bout our kin
G C G C
Slap her down again, paw… slap her down again (slap)

Now poor old Bess got so darn mad, she ran away one day
G C
To meet that travellin' salesman, with city-skickin' ways
C G C G
We ran and stood beside them though, with shotguns by our sides
G C
Me and Deke and paw and ma, who yelled as they came by
