Rhett Akins - Hung Up
AWell everything spring for five long years
I've been chasing down the same long beard
It's a get up early and give him all I Dgot
AGot me an old box call and brand new choke
And this year it aint no joke
I'm gonna fool him good and finally get a sDhot
Well he gGobbled his head off on the roost
I was just about to cook his goose
He was coming in and its like he hit a wAall
Chorus:
Now he's Dhung up
Down in the holler
I'd gCive up 
A couple hundred dollars
If he'd bGreak that strut
And cFome in Con sDtring
Well he must've found a new girlfriend
And that dCanged ol' hen wont let him come in
Hes hGung up
FDown in a Choller agDain
Well I slipped around to the other side
Just to let him think I let him slide
And give him an hour or two to do his thing
About 10 o'clock I shot him a call
And he hammered back and I took off
And I sat up on the southside of the spring
Well he couldn't have been more than eighty yards
My old heart was pounding hard
Then it hit me
I'd screwed up again
Chorus:
Cause he's hung up
Down in the holler
I'd give up 
Five hundred dollars
If he'd break that strut
And come in on string
Well you'd think by now I'd have more sense 
Than to call a turkey through a barbwire fence
Hes hung up
Down in a holler again
Well I was feelin like a damned ol' fool
That turkey done took this boy to school
I was packing up and headed back to the truck
But I had me one more trick up my sleeve 
The one my grand pappy taught me
I knew I was gonna need me a little luck
Pulled out my slate call made me a fightin purr
I all I seen was beard and spurs
He flew the fence and I filled him with number fives
Chorus:
Cause he's hung up
Down in the holler
I'd spend up
Every last dollar 
To break that strut and come in on string
Well he came to fight for his girlfriend
Now he's upside down on a hickory limb 
He's hung up 
Down in a holler again
Last time he'll be hung up 
Down in a holler again

Rhett Akins - Hung Up

Well everything spring for five long years

I've been chasing down the same long beard

It's a get up early and give him all I got

Got me an old box call and brand new choke

And this year it aint no joke

I'm gonna fool him good and finally get a shot

Well he gobbled his head off on the roost

I was just about to cook his goose

He was coming in and its like he hit a wall

Chorus:

Now he's hung up

Down in the holler

I'd give up

A couple hundred dollars

If he'd break that strut

F C D

And come in on string

Well he must've found a new girlfriend

And that danged ol' hen wont let him come in

Hes hung up

F C D

Down in a holler again

Well I slipped around to the other side

Just to let him think I let him slide

And give him an hour or two to do his thing

About 10 o'clock I shot him a call

And he hammered back and I took off

And I sat up on the southside of the spring

Well he couldn't have been more than eighty yards

My old heart was pounding hard

Then it hit me

I'd screwed up again

Chorus:

Cause he's hung up

Down in the holler

I'd give up

Five hundred dollars

If he'd break that strut

And come in on string

Well you'd think by now I'd have more sense

Than to call a turkey through a barbwire fence

Hes hung up

Down in a holler again

Well I was feelin like a damned ol' fool

That turkey done took this boy to school

I was packing up and headed back to the truck

But I had me one more trick up my sleeve

The one my grand pappy taught me

I knew I was gonna need me a little luck

Pulled out my slate call made me a fightin purr

I all I seen was beard and spurs

He flew the fence and I filled him with number fives

Chorus:

Cause he's hung up

Down in the holler

I'd spend up

Every last dollar

To break that strut and come in on string

Well he came to fight for his girlfriend

Now he's upside down on a hickory limb

He's hung up

Down in a holler again

Last time he'll be hung up

Down in a holler again
