1 Uh—go down, go down, you little red, Redder than rouge rising sun,
And don't you never—uh—bring day, Great Godamighty, no more.
2 To the pine, to the pine, where the sun, Great Godamighty, don't shine,
You got to shiver when the cold, Great Godamighty, wind blows.
3 Lord, I wish to my soul that old bald— Bald-head Judge was dead,
And green grass growing round, Great Godamighty, his head.
4 Lord, I left my home in nine— Nineteen hundred and ten, And I ain't never, oh, been back, Great Godamighty, again.
[360] |
