I once went a courtin';
Down in 'ol Alabama.
I brought along a donkey;
And a slice of salama!
I saw her there a sitting;
In a dirty lawn chair,
And asked her nicely
To watch Yogi Bear.
Gom-yey-on-yo!
Crying all night long;
Gom-yey-onnnnn-yo!!
That's the name of this song.
I once digged me a hole;
Down in 'ol Tennesee.
I brought along a pickle;
And a little monkey.
I saw her there a sitting;
On a rusty old chair;
And asked her while crying;
To please sniff my hair!!!
Gom-yey-on-yo!
Crying all night long;
Gom-yey-onnnnn-yo!!
That's the name of this song.
