Old Dan Tucker Lyrics

OLD DAN TUCKER

Traditional





Old Dan Tucker's a mean old man Washed his face in a fryin' pan Combed his head
with a wagon wheel And died with a toothache in his heel Now get out the way,
old Dan Tucker Too late to get your supper. Supper's over and dinner is a
cookin', Ol' Dan Tucker jus' standin' there a lookin'. Now old Dan Tucker is
come to town Riding a billy goat leading a hound Hound dog bark and the billy
goat jump Landed Dan Tucker on top of the stump * Refrain Now old Dan Tucker he
got drunk Fell in the fire and kicked up a chunk Red hot coal got in his shoe
And oh my lawd how the ashes flew * Refrain Now old Dan Tucker is come to town
Swinging the ladies round and round First to the right and then to the left
Then to the girl that he loves best * Refrain
