Way down south in Okefenokee the sun goes down

and the air is cool.
          F
There's a real neat beat traveling over the water..
     C                        G7
it's making me a dancing fool.

CHORUS:
C                                                    G7
Okefenokee, Okefenokee..choo-wah, choo-wah, choo-wah.

Out on the lake down in Okefenokee The Riverboat is

where the cats all go.
F                                                C
Stomping their feet and clapping in rhythm..it's wilder
             G7
than a rodeo.

CHORUS:
C                                                    G7
Okefenokee, Okefenokee..choo-wah, choo-wah, choo-wah.

On the deck of the boat down in Okefenokee I met a Georgia 

Peach who was raring to go.
    F                                                C
She danced up a storm with her pom-poms booming..til someone 
                      G7
hollered, fire below!

Well, the boat went down in Okefenokee while the cats and 

chicks went for the door.

My baby and I stole a kiss on the water..I kissed her all
                  G#7
the way to shore.

CHORUS:
