do some hammer-ons to jazz it up a little bit.

Oh, how long 'til the medicine takes

Verse 3:
Well, we got a party goin' on many spirits strong
Ain't preacher just a happy to meet ya
Half a bottle 'neath the bed keep our spirits fed
My hat's off to you, to you and you
And now our brave friends, too,
dancing circles through the room
And a broom and a radio and a twistin out a dos-e-do
Brand new day, the whole world's goin'
Whole room's goin' so
Chorus
Just now, don't hesitate (hesitate)
Oh, taste the morning break (morning break)
Sweet, sweet, young honeycomb (honeycomb)
On, now, now, now just like home (just like home)

Like a fresh skipped stone to it all

Still right here, still just here,
G G A D
Still just here, brave, brave friend
