The Hog-Eye Man

歌詞

Oh, go fetch me down my riding cane For I'm goin' to see my darlin' Jane! And a hog-eye railroad nigger With his hog-eye row The boat ashore And a hog-eye, oh! She wants the hog-eye man! Oh, the hog-eye man is the man for me He was raised way down in Tennessee! And a hog-eye railroad nigger With his hog-eye row The boat ashore And a hog-eye, oh! She wants the hog-eye man! Oh, the hog's-eye men are all they go When they come down to San Francisco! And a hog-eye railroad nigger With his hog-eye row The boat ashore And a hog-eye, oh! She wants the hog-eye man! Now, it's: "Who's been here, since I've been gone?" A railroad nigger with his sea-boots on! And a hog-eye railroad nigger With his hog-eye row The boat ashore And a hog-eye, oh! She wants the hog-eye man! Oh, Sally in the garden is picking peas Her golden hair hanging down to her knees! And a hog-eye railroad nigger With his hog-eye row The boat ashore And a hog-eye, oh! She wants the hog-eye man! Oh, Jenny's in the garden shelling peas A bold Jack Tar sitting on her knee! And a hog-eye railroad nigger With his hog-eye row The boat ashore And a hog-eye, oh! She wants the hog-eye man! Now, where have you been gone so long You Yankee Tar with your sea-boots on? And a hog-eye railroad nigger With his hog-eye row The boat ashore And a hog-eye, oh! She wants the hog-eye man! We're a hog's-eye ship and a hog's-eye crew With a hog's-eye mate and a skipper too! And a hog-eye railroad nigger With his hog-eye row The boat ashore And a hog-eye, oh! She wants the hog-eye man!
