The Hatfield’s being a hillbilly crew
A story that we will pursue
The Hatfield’s with their mountain country language phrase
Listening to them talk will sure too amaze
Yet there was a feud between the Hatfield’s and the Knot’s
One might think this could be a plot
At times you can hear echoing from mountain to mountain
Then there are times gun shots
I have been often been asked, “How did the Hatfield’s get their name?
They were a family who worked closely in the cornfield’s and wore hats
The hats were to keep the sun from cooking their heads, now imagine that.
Hatfield’s that had a feud name
But it was the mountains from which they came
Hillbillies being country folks
To some people nothing more than a joke
The Hatfield’s with a temperament to attack
If you poke you better step back
It will be the Hatfield’s gun shots that won’t lack
The Hatfield’s are a family that is a big pack
Their mountain rigid ways sharp as a tack.
