Pig Foot Pete
By Ella Mae Morse & Freddie Slack
All C chords can be swapped out with their 7 equivalent (eg. C becomes C7) to add a more retro sound.
Verse 1
[G]
Way out in Kansas City on one, two street,
[G]
they say that there's a guy they call Pig Foot Pete.
[C]
He plays piano, by ear, and he'll
[G]
play all night for pig's feet and beer.
[D7] [C]
He's "murder" on the eighty eight, he's the
[G]
guy who brought the Boogie Woogie up to date.
Chorus
[G] [C]
He's got a cannon, in his left hand,
[G]
and a rifle, in his right,
[G] [C7]
he's just a double barrelled "gate",
[G]
and he shoots the eight beats to you at a fright'nin' rate.
[D7] [C]
He's just a solid "wiz", I'll tell you who he is, he's
[G]
Pig Foot Pete of Boogie Woogie's elite.
Verse 2
[G]
His hands are just as big as Virginia hams, and
[G]
when they go to work they're like battrin' rams,
[C] [G]
and when he plays on, that box, the joint rocks!
[G]
Until you're beat to your sox.
[D7] [C]
Wherever boogie, is part of the plan, you'll find
[G]
Pig Foot Pete, the Boogie Woogie man.
