As I was goin' down the road,
|
With a wagon team and a heavy load,
|
I cracked my whip and the horses ran,
|
I yelled " Yee-Haw !" and the fun began.
|
Turkey in the straw________ ,
|
Turkey in the hay_________ ,
|
Roll 'em up and hit 'em up a high tuck-a-haw,
|
And hit them with a tune called 'Turkey in the Straw'.
|
Oh, I come to the river and I couldn't get across,
|
So I paid five dollars for an old blind horse,
|
Oh, he wouldn't go across and he wouldn't stand still,
|
So he went up and down like an old saw mill.
|
Turkey in the Straw________ , Turkey in the Hay_______ , Roll 'em up and hit 'em up a high tuck-a-haw,
|
And hit them with a tune called 'Turkey in the Straw'.
|
Old mac donald had a horse -e-i-e-i-o- ,
|
And that old horse was blind, of course, -e-i-e-i-o- But the horse sang
|
Turkey in the straw_______ ,
|
Turkey in the hay______ ,
|
Roll 'em up and hit 'em up a high tuck-a-haw,
|
And hit them with a tune called 'Turkey in the Straw'.
|
Turkey in the straw_______ ,
|
Turkey in the hay _______ ,
|
Roll 'em up and hit 'em up a high tuck-a-haw,
|
And hit them with a tune
|
hit them with a tune
|
Hit them with a tune called 'Turkey in the straw'.
