Turkey In The Straw

As I was a-gwine down the road
With a tired team and a heavy load
Crack'd my whip and the leader sprung
I says 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 name a "Turkey In The Straw"

Went out to milk, and I didn't know how
Milked the goat instead of the cow
Monkey sittin' on a pile of straw
A-winkin' at his mother-in-law

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 name a "Turkey In The Straw"

Met Mr. Catfish comin' down stream
Says Mr. Catfish, "What does you mean?"
Caught Mr. Catfish by the snout
Turned Mr. Catfish wrong side out

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 name a "Turkey In The Straw"

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

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 name a "Turkey In The Straw"

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

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 name a "Turkey In The Straw"

Oh I jumped in the seat and I gave a little yell
The horses ran away, broke the wagon all to hell
Sugar in the gourd and honey in the horn
Never been so happy since the day I was born

Turkey in the straw (turkey in the hay)
Turkey in the straw, what do ya say?
Roll 'em up and twist 'em up a high tuckahaw
And twist em up a tune name a "Turkey In The Straw"
