I want a barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
  Won't you play for me a down home country song
  'Cause when I kick my shoes off and I kick my blues off
  With a barefoot ballad you just can't go wrong
    Give me a honk-tonk fiddle with a guitar in the middle and a melody
  Humming like a fountain swinging out on Smokey mountain
    I want a barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
  Won't you play for me a down home country song
  'Cause when I kick my shoes off and I kick my blues off
  With a barefoot ballad you just can't go wrong
    Now the big toe's connected to the two toe
  And the two toe's connected to the three toe
  And the three toe's connected to the four toe
  And the four toe's connected to the five toe
  And the five toe and away we go
    I want a barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
  Won't you play for me a down home country song
  'Cause when I kick my shoes off and I kick my blues off
  With a barefoot ballad you just can't go wrong
    Now the big toe's connected to the two toe
  And the two toe's connected to the three toe
  And the three toe's connected to the four toe
  And the four toe's connected to the five toe
  And the five toe and away we go
    I wanna barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
  Won't you play for me a barefoot ballad song.
