Way down south where the whippoorwills call There's gonna be a jubilee Folks will come from miles around to share their company There's all day singing and dinner on the ground And when the day is through there's peace and contentment At smokey joe's barbeque
Smokey joe's barbeque smokey joe's barbeque There's always fun for everyone at smokey joe's barbeque The string band plays turkey in the hay They play it just for you You’ll laugh and be gay till the judgment day At smokey joe's barbeque
When the dogwoods bloom and the red birds sing That's a time i love to see When work is through and the crops laid by i dream of reality When you can lay around in the evening shade Relax when the day is through just be dancing be happy At smokey joe's barbeque
