Turkey In The Straw

Turkey in the Straw As I was a-gwine down the road Tired team and a heavy load Crack my whip and the leader sprung L seys day-day to the wagon tongue Turkey in the straw, turkey in the hay Turkey in the straw, turkey in the hay Roll 'em up and twist 'em up a high tuckahaw And twist 'em up a tune called Turkey in the Straw Went out to milk, and I didn't know how I milked the goat instead of the cow A monkey sittin' on a pile of straw A-winkin' at his mother-in-law Met Mr. Catfish comin' down stream Says Mr. Catfish, "What does you mean?" Caught Mr. Catfish by the snout And turned Mr. Catfish wrong side out Came to a river and I couldn't get across Paid five dollars for a blind old hoss; Wouldn't go ahead, nor he wouldn't stand still So he went up and down like an old saw mill As I came down the new cut road Met Mr. Bullfrog, met Miss Toad And every time Miss Toad would sing Old Bullfrog cut a pigeon wing Oh I jumped in the seat and I gave a little yell The horses ran away, broke the wagon all to hell Sugar in the gourd and honey in the horn I never been so happy since the day I was born Filename[ TURKSTRW SF ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY
