Hopalong Peter Lyrics

[Verse 1: David Grisman]
Old Uncle Peter, he got tight
Started up to heaven one stormy night
The road being rough and him not well
He lost, his way and he went to ...

[Chorus: Jerry Garcia & David Grisman]
Hopalong Peter where you goin'?
Hopalong Peter where you goin'?
Hopalong Peter won't you bear in mind
I ain't comin' back 'til the gooseberry time

[Verse 2: David Grisman]
Old mother Hubbard and her dog were Dutch
A bow-legged rooster and he hobbled on a crutch
The hen chewed tobacco and the duck drank wine
The goose played the fiddle on the pumpkin vine

[Chorus: Jerry Garcia & David Grisman]
Hopalong Peter where you goin'?
Hopalong Peter where you goin'?
Hopalong Peter won't you bear in mind
I ain't comin' back 'til the gooseberry time

[Verse 3: David Grisman]
Down in the barn yard playin' seven up
The old tomcat and the little yellow pup
The old mother Hubbard she's a pickin' out the fleas
The rooster in the cream jar up to his knees

[Chorus: Jerry Garcia & David Grisman]
Hopalong Peter, where you goin'?
Hopalong Peter, where you goin'?
Hopalong Peter, won't you bear in mind
I ain't comin' back 'til the gooseberry time

[Verse 4: David Grisman]
I've got a sweet gal in this old town
If she weighs an ounce she weighs seven hundred pounds
Every time my sweet gal turns once around
The heels of her shoe makes a hole in the ground

[Chorus: Jerry Garcia & David Grisman]
Hopalong Peter, where you goin'?
Hopalong Peter, where you goin'?
Hopalong Peter, won't you bear in mind
I ain't comin' back 'til the gooseberry
Hopalong Peter, where you goin'?
Hopalong Peter, where you goin'?
Hopalong Peter, won't you bear in mind
I ain't comin' back 'til the gooseberry time
