I WENT DOWN THE ROAD
I went down de road, I went in a whoop; An' I met Aunt Dinah Wid a chicken pot o' soup. "I went away from dar; hook-a-doo-dle,
hook-a-doo-dle." "I went away from dar; hook-a-doo-dle-doo!" I drunk up dat soup, An' I let her go by; An' I tol' her nex' time To bring Missus' pot pie. "Oh far'-you-well; hook-a-doo-dle, hook-a-doo-dle ; Oh far'-you-well, an' a hook-a-doo-dle-doo!" |
