Oh, I went down South
For to see my Sal
Sing a holi-holiday
My Sal, she is
A spunky gal
Sing a holi-holiday
Hooray! Hooray!
It's a holi-holiday
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Susyanna
Sing a holi-holiday
Oh, my Sal, she is
A maiden fair
Sing a holi-holiday
With curly eyes
And laughing hair
Sing a holi-holiday
Hooray! Hooray!
It's a holi-holiday
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Susyanna
Sing a holi-holiday
Behind the barn,
Down on my knees
Sing a holi-holiday
I thought I heard
A chicken sneeze
Sing a holi-holiday
He sneezed so hard
With the whooping cough
Sing a holi-holiday
He sneezed his head
And the tail right off
Sing a holi-holiday
Hooray! Hooray!
It's a holi-holiday
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Susyanna
Sing a holi-holiday
Oh, a grasshopper sittin'
On a railroad track
Sing a holi-holiday
A-pickin' his teeth
With a carpet track
Sing a holi-holiday
Oh, I went to bed
But it wasn't any use
Sing a holi-holiday
My feet stuck out
Like a chicken roost
Sing a holi-holiday
Hooray! Hooray!
It's a holi-holiday
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Susyanna
Sing a holi-holiday
Sing a holi-holiday!
