EWell my Uncle Mort
EHe's ahead of us, sport
He Aweighs only a gallon or Etwo
EBut he thinks he's a giant
EWhen you slip him a pint
Of that good ol' BMountain EDew
[Chorus]
EOh, they call it that good ol' Mountain Dew, Dew, Dew
And Athem that refuse it are Efew
EI'll hush up my mug
EIf you fill up my jug
With that good ol' BMountain EDew
[Verse 2]
EDown the road here from me
EThere's a big holler tree
Where you Alay down a dollar or Etwo
EWell, you go around the bend
EAnd ya come back again
EWith a jug full of good ol' BMountain EDew
[Chorus]
EOh, they call it that good ol' Mountain Dew
And Athem that refuse it are Efew
EI'll hush up my mug
EIf you fill up my jug
EWith that good ol' BMountain EDew
[Verse 3]
EMy Uncle Mort, he's sawed off and short
He Ameasures about four feet Etwo
EWhen you slip him a pint
EThen he thinks he's a giant
EFrom that good ol' BMountain EDew
[Chorus]
EOh, they call it that good ol' Mountain Dew
And Athem that refuse it are Efew
EI'll hush up my mug
EIf you fill up my jug
