Old Dan Tucker

I come to town the other night
I hear the noise, I see the fight
The watchman was running around
Sayin' Old Dan Tucker is back in town.
Get outta way! Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get to supper
Supper is over n' breakfast's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker stand there lookin'

Old Dan Tucker he got drunk
Jumped in the fire n' kicked up a chunk
Red hot coal flew down his shoe
"Oh God Almighty" all the cuss words flew
Get outta way! Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Supper is over n' breakfast's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker stand there lookin'

Old Dan Tucker was a mighty man
He washed his face in the frying pan
Comb his hair with a wagon wheel
Died with a toothache in his heel
Get outta way! Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Supper is over n' breakfast's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker stand there lookin'

Old Dan began early in life
To playin' banjo and win him a wife
But everytime he'd company to keep
Darn fool played himself to sleep
Get outta way! Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Supper is over n' breakfast's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker stand there lookin'

Old Dan Tucker's mother in law
Was the ugliest thing I ever saw
Her eyes stuck out, her nose pushed in
Her upper lip hung down her chin
Get outta way! Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Supper is over n' breakfast's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker stand there lookin'

It doesn't seem like very long
Since Old Dan Tucker's been here and gone
I bet he hate told to leave his place
'Cause every gal's got a pretty face
Get outta way! Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Supper is over n' breakfast's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker stand there lookin'
