Old Dan Tucker lyrics

Went to town the other night

Hear the noise and see the fight

Everybody was jumping around

Saying Old Dan Tucker is comin' to town

Get out the for Old Dan Tucker

You're too late to get your supper

Supper's over and dinner cookin',

Old Dan Tucker just stands there lookin

Old Dan Tucker came to town

Swingin' the ladies all around

First to the right and then to the left

Then to the gal that he loved the best.

Dan began early in his life,

To play the banjo and win a wife,

But every time he'd company keep,

He'd play himself fast asleep.

Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker

You're too late to get your supper

Supper's over and dinner's cookin',

Old Dan Tucker just stands there lookin'

Old Dan Tucker came to town

Riding a billy goat and leading a hound

The hound barked, the billy goat jumped

Throwed Dan Tucker upside the stump.

Old Dan Tucker was a fine old man,

Washed his face in the frying pan,

Combed his hair with a wagon wheel,

Died of a toothache in his heel.

Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker

You're too late to get your supper

Supper's over and dinner's cookin',

Old Dan Tucker just stands there lookin' (x2)

Get out the way, get out the way

Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker

You're too late to get your supper.
