Social Songs
4  Grabbed him by his feet and slung his head down, {whistle) Grabbed him by his feet and slung his head down,
Gave him such a sling till I slung him over town. Toll-a-winker, toll-a-winker, tum-toily-aye.
5   The people all around saw the deed I done, {whistle) The people all around saw the deed I done,
They sentenced me to ten thousand ton. Toll-a-winker, toll-a-winker, tum-tolly-aye.
6  Had a little dog his name is Don, {whistle) Had a little dog his name is Don,
His legs went to feet and his body went to tongue. Toll-a-winker, toll-a-winker, tum-tolly-aye.
7  Have a little box about three feet square, {whistle) Have a little box about three feet square,
When I go to travel I put him under there. Toll-a-winker, toll-a-winker, tum-tolly-aye.
8   When I go to travel I travel like an ox, {whistle) When I go to travel I travel like an ox,
And in my vest pocket I carry that box. Toll-a-winker, toll-a-winker, tum-tolly-aye.
9  Had a little hen her color was fair, {whistle) Had a little hen her color was fair,
Sat her on a bomb and she hatched me a hare. Toll-a-winker, toll-a-winker, tum-tolly-aye.
io The hare turned a horse about six foot high, {whistle) The hare turned a horse about six foot high, If a man beats this he'll have to tell a lie. Toll-a-winker, toll-a-winker, tum-tolly-aye.
