#1.
[C]Way down south in Okefenokee the sun goes down
and the air is cool.
There's a [F]real neat beat traveling over the water..
it's [C]making me a dancing fool.[G7]
CHORUS:
[C]Okefenokee, Okefenokee..choo-wah, choo-wah, choo-wah.[G7]
#2.
[C]Out on the lake down in Okefenokee The Riverboat is
where the cats all go.
[F]Stomping their feet and clapping in rhythm..it's [C]wilder
than a rodeo.[G7]
CHORUS:
[C]Okefenokee, Okefenokee..choo-wah, choo-wah, choo-wah.[G7]
(INTERLUDE:) C C7 F C G7 F C G7
#3.
On the [C]deck of the boat down in Okefenokee I met a Georgia
Peach who was raring to go.
She [F]danced up a storm with her pom-poms booming..til [C]someone
hollered, fire below![G7]
#4.
Well, the [C#]boat went down in Okefenokee while the cats and
chicks went for the door.
My [F#]baby and I stole a kiss on the water..I [C#]kissed her all
the way to shore.[G#7]
CHORUS:
[C#]Okefenokee, Okefenokee..choo-wah, choo-wah, choo-wah.[G#7]
OUTRO:
Come on, [C#]Georgia, wooo!..let's party, sugar.
Yeah, bye-[F#]bye..so, long for [C#]now, baby.
Come on, [G#]Georgia..[F#]let's get outta here, [C#]baby.[G#7]
Come on, [C#]spin it, baby..come on, honey..(Fade.)
