Uncle Pen
     Monroe  Key=G
  
     Oh the people would come from far away
     They'd dance all night till the break of day 
     When the caller hollered "do-se-do"
     You knew Uncle Pen was ready to go 

     [ Late in the evening about sundown              ]
     [ High on the hill and above the town            ]
     [ Uncle Pen played the fiddle Lord how it'd ring ]
     [ You could hear it talk, you could hear it sing ]

     He played an old piece he called "Soldier's Joy"
     And the one called "The Boston Boy"
     The greatest of all was "Jenny Lynn"
     To me that's where the fiddle begins

     I'll never forget that mournful day
     When Uncle Pen was called away
     They hung up his fiddle, they hung up his bow
     They knew it was time for him to go

     note:
     on the 3rd phrase of the chorus "Lord how it'd ring"
     hold "ring" out for 8 counts, or 2 measures. The
     tenor and baritone can even detune in the 2nd measure
     to form a C chord..then sliding back up to form the
     root on the last count of the measure. This arrangement
     is borrowed with permission from Gerald MIlton,
     Thanks Gerald !
