TOLL-A-WINKER
/'. No. 64. Gant family, Austin, Texas, 1934. See Hu, p. 275; JAFL, 4:269.
i When I was a little boy as fat as I could roll, {whistle) When I was a little boy as fat as I could roll. They put me on a boxcar, and there we had a show. Toll-a-winker, toll-a-winker, tum-tolly-aye.
2  Long come Johnny and he passed me by, {whistle) Long come Johnny and he passed me by,
His feet on the ground and his head in the sky. Toll-a-winker, toll-a-winker, tum-tolly-aye.
3  He bantered me for wrestle and I hopped, jumped, and run, {whistle) He bantered me for wrestle and I hopped, jumped, and run,
Beat him at his game and shot him with a gun. Toll-a-winker, toll-a-winker, tum-tolly-aye.
[108]
