G            C
Dooley was a good old man
   G               D
He lived below the mill
G              C
Dooley had two daughters
      D            G
And a forty gallon still
                     C
One girl watched the boiler
    G                 D
The other watched the spout
G              C
Mama corks the bottles
         D                G
When old Dooley sets them out


[Refrain]
G                            C
Dooley, steppin' up a holler
                                 G
Dooley, tryin' to make a dollar
                         D
Dooley, gimme a swaller
                          G
And I'll pay you back someday


[Verse 2]
    G              C
The revenuers came back one day
  G                    D
a-slippin' through the woods
G             C
Dooley kept behind them all
    D              G
And never lost his goods
G            C           G              D
Dooley was a trader when into town he'd come
G            C            D             G
Sugar by the bushel and molasses by the tun


[Refrain]
G                            C
Dooley, steppin' up a holler
                                 G
Dooley, tryin' to make a dollar
                         D
Dooley, gimme a swaller
                          G
And I'll pay you back someday


[Verse 3]
G          C             G              D
I remember very well the day old Dooley died
    G              C
The women all felt sorry and
    D                  G
The men sat around and cried
    G                C            G               D
Now Dooley's on that mountain, he lies there all alone
     G           C              D            G
They put a jug beside 'im and a barrel for a stone


[Refrain]
G                            C
Dooley, steppin' up a holler
                                 G
Dooley, tryin' to make a dollar
                         D
Dooley, gimme a swaller
                          G
And I'll pay you back someday
