Song Title: Old Dan Tucker

[Verse 1]
Went to town the other night
To hear the noise and see the fight
Everybody was a-jumpin' around
Sayin' Old Dan Tucker is comin' to town

[Chorus]
Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get yer supper
Supper's over and dinner's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker just stands there lookin'

[Verse 2]
Old Dan Tucker came to town
Swingin' the ladies all around
First to the right and then to the left
Then to the gal that he loved the best

[Verse 3]
Dan began early in his life
To play the banjo and win a wife
But every time he'd company keep
He'd play himself fast asleep

[Chorus]
Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get yer supper
Supper's over and dinner's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker just stands there lookin'

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Old Dan Tucker came to town
Ridin' a billy-goat and leading a hound
Hound barked, billy-goat jumped
Throwed Dan Tucker upside the stump

[Verse 5]
Old Dan Tucker was a fine old man
Washed his face in the frying pan
He combed his hair with a wagon wheel
Died of the toothache in his heel

[Chorus]
Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get yer supper
Supper's over and dinner's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker just stands there lookin'

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get yer supper
Supper's over and dinner's cookin'
Old Dan Tucker just stands there lookin'

[Outro]
Get out the way
Get out the way
Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get yer supper
