recording of 19
from
The Folkways Years (1945-1959) (Smithsonian/Folkways 40034)
Come along, little children, come along, while the moon is shinin' bright
Get on boy, down the river flow, gonna raise a ruckus tonight
Well, this night we're goin' down cross a forty acre field, raise a ruckus tonight
Black snake bit me on my heel, raise a ruckus tonight
Turned right around to do my best, raise a ruckus tonight
Fell right back in a hornet's nest, raise a ruckus tonight
My old uncle promised me, raise a ruckus tonight
When he died he make a will for me, raise a ruckus tonight
Lived so long his head got bald, raise a ruckus tonight
Got off the notion of dyin' at all, raise a ruckus tonight
Well, me and my buddy goin' to town, raise a ruckus tonight
Ridin' a billy goat don't need no hound, raise a ruckus tonight
Hound barked the billy goat jumped, raise a ruckus tonight
Ooh, my buddy back stretched a stump, raise a ruckus tonight
