Songtexte Hog Eye Man - The Longest Johns

Oh, hand me down my riding cane
I'm off to meet my darlin', Jane

With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eyed man

Oh, the hog-eye man is the man for me
He was born and raised in Tennessee

With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eyed man

Oh, he came to the shack where Sally did dwell
He knocked on the door and he rung the bell

With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eyed man

Oh, who's been here since I been gone
A railroad navvy with his sea-boots on

With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eyed man

Oh, Sally's in the garden sifting sand
The hog-eye man sittin' hand in hand

With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eyed man

Oh, Sally's in the garden shelling peas
Her long yellow hair hangin' down to her knees

With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eyed man

Oh, I won't wear a hog-eye, damned if I do
Got jiggers in his feet and he can't wear shoes

With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eyed man

Oh, a hog-eye ship and a hog-eye crew
A hog-eyed mate and a skipper too

With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eyed man

Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eyed man
