Hickory Days by Lake Fork Verne
Hickory Days
D G D
Hickory nuts is what Dad called them
A
Pecans, was the word used in town
D G D
In the Fall, he would gather them in
A D
The best collector for miles a- round
G D
In his striped engineers hat
A
And his faded Pay Day over- alls
D G D
He would slip in and out of that timber like a cat
A D
Without any effort at all
D G D
He decided when the time was right
A
By the color of the hickory leaves
D G D
He picked what he needed with touch so light
A D
And brought in buckets of nuts with ease
D G D
He would crack them at the kitchen table at night
A
Using his knife and little vise
D G D
Looking through the shadows with a coal oil light
A D
Packing the sweet kernels in bread wraps so nice
G D
Oh, the pies and the cakes that Mother made
A
Tasted so good, flavored that a- way
D G D
Thanks to Dad and his hickory days
A D
I can still see him hunting today
