Old Shoes And Legggins

歌詞

A man that was old come a-courting one day And the girls wouldn't have him He come down the lane on a walking cane With his overshoes on and his leggings My mother she told me to give him a chair For the girls wouldn't have him I give him a chair and he looked mighty queer With his overshoes on and his leggings My mother she told me to hang up his hat For the girls wouldn't have him I hung up his hat and he kicked at the cat With his overshoes on and his leggings My mother she told me to give him some meat For the girls wouldn't have him I give him some meat, and oh how he did eat With his overshoes on and his leggings My mother she told me to give him the hoe For the girls wouldn't have him I give him the hoe and he jumped Jim Crow With his overshoes on and his leggings My mother she told me to give him the saw For the girls wouldn't have him I give him the saw and he played "Rye Straw" With his overshoes on and his leggings My mother she told me to put him to bed For the girls wouldn't have him I put him to bed and he stood on his head With his overshoes on and his leggings My mother she told me to send him away For the girls wouldn't have him I sent him away and he left Christmas Day With his overshoes on and his leggings
