Old Dan Tucker - Various Artists
I come to town the other night
Heard the noise and I saw the fight
The watchman was a-runnin' roun'
Cryin' Old Dan tucker's come to town
So get out the way Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to stay for supper
Supper's over and breakfast's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker standin' there lookin'
Well Old Dan he went down to the mill
To get some meal to put in his swill
The miller swore by the point of his knife
He never seen such a man in his life
So get out the way Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to stay for supper
Supper's over and breakfast's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker standin' there lookin'
Old Dan Tucker's scared a skunk
And he fell in the fire
And he kicked up a chunk
A red-hot Coal rolled in his shoe
And my oh my how the ashes flew
So get out the way Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to stay for supper
Supper's over and breakfast's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker standin' there lookin'
Well Old Dan Tucker was a mighty man
Washed his face in a frying pan
Combed his hair with a wagon wheel
And dired with a tootheache in his heel
So get out the way Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to stay for supper
Supper's over and breakfast's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker standin' there lookin'
