unknown – turkey in the straw lyrics
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 h-ll
sugar in the gourd and honey in the h-rn
i never been so happy since the day i was born.
