In the Earl Johnson recording, the ? words are:

"Red, you got mighty dry eats around your house," hence the invite to "Get it and wet it."

Len Spencer recorded a variant of AT called "Hickory Bill," teamed with Fred Van Eps on gut-strung banjo. Spencer does both voices, a yokel and his visitor, a banjo picker. Van Eps provides short quotes from Arkansas Traveler, Dixie, and a tremolo-strummed Old Black Joe. The surprise ending is telegraphed from the first crank of the cylinder player. The recording is also available at UCSB.
