Lyrics Lolly-Too-Dum - Burl Ives
-----------------------
As
I
went
out
one
morning
to
take
the
pleasant
air,
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
As
I
went
out
one
morning
to
take
the
pleasant
air,
I
overheard
a
mother
a-scolding
her
daughter
fair,
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"You
better
go
wash
them
dishes,
and
hush
that
flattering
tongue."
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"You
better
go
wash
them
dishes,
and
hush
that
flattering
tongue.
You
know
you
want
to
get
married
and
that
you
are
too
young."
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"Oh,
pity
my
condition
just
as
you
would
your
own."
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"Oh,
pity
my
condition
just
as
you
would
your
own.
For
fourteen
long
years,
I've
been
living
all
alone."
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"Supposing
I
was
willing,
where
would
you
get
your
man?"
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"Supposing
I
was
willing,
where
would
you
get
your
man?"
"Why,
Lordy,
mercy!
Mammy,
I'd
marry
Handsome
Sam."
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"Supposing
he
should
slight
you
like
you
done
him
before?"
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"Supposing
he
should
slight
you
like
you
done
him
before?"
"Why,
Lordy,
mercy!
Mama,
I'd
marry
forty
more."
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"There's
doctors
and
lawyers
and
boys
from
the
plow."
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"There's
doctors
and
lawyers
and
boys
from
the
plow."
"Why,
Lordy,
mercy!
Mammy,
the
fit
comes
on
me
now."
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"Now,
my
daughter's
married
and
well
for
to
do."
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
"Now,
my
daughter's
married
and
well
for
to
do."
"Come
gather
'round,
young
fellers!
I'm
on
the
market,
too!"
Lolly
too
dum,
too
dum,
Lolly
too
dum
day.
