| lyric | 1. Oh, I went down South for to see, my Sal,
sing Polly wolly doodle all the day;
my Sally am a sopunky girl,
sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.
Fare thee well, my fary fay,
for I'm goin' to Louisanna,
for to see my Susyanna,
sing Polly, wolly, doodle all the day.
2. Oh, my Sal, she am a maiden fair,
Sing Polly-Wolly Doodle all the day.
Wich laughin’ eyes and curly hair,
Sing Polly-Wolly Doodle all the day.
3. Oh, a grasshopper sittin’ on a railroad track,
A-pickin’ his teeth with a carpet tack.
4. Oh, I went to bed, but it wasn’t no use,
My feet stuck out for a chicken roost.
5. Behind the barn, down on my knees,
I thought I heard a chicken sneeze.
6. He sneezed so hard with the whoopin’-cough,
He sneezed his head and tail right off. |
