Old Dan Tucker:
Old Dan Tucker was fine old man.
Washed his face in a frying pan.
Combed his hair with a wagon wheel.
And died with a toothache in his heel.
Chorus:
Get out the way Old Dan Tucker.
You’re too late to get your supper.
Supper’s over and breakfast cookin’.
Old Dan Tucker’s standin’ there lookin’.
(Now) Old Dan Tucker is come to town.
Ridin’ on a billygoat leadin’ a hound.
Hound dog bark and the billy goat jump.
Landed Dan Tucker on the top of a stump.
(Now) Old Dan Tucker he got drunk.
Fell in the fire and kicked up a chunk.
Red hot coal got in his shoe.
And eeh! Ooh! how the ashes flew!
Old Dan Tucker is come to town.
Swingin’ the ladies ‘round an’ ‘round.
First to the right and then to the left.
Then to the girls that he loves best.
