Geoff Kaufman sings more-or-less the same lyrics Richard posted. Here's my transcription of Geoff's recording. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ny6VWokn_ZE YOU'RE NOTHIN' BUT A HUMBUG (as sung by Geoff Kaufman) You're nothin' but a humbug So they say, so they say You're nothin' but a humbug And that's all I know There's a catfish growin' on a huckleberry vine So they say, so they say There's a catfish growin' on a huckleberry vine And that's all I know I said, you're nothing but a humbug So they say, so they say You're nothin' but a humbug That's all I know Well Dandy Jim from North Carolina He come home for to marry Dinah I said, you're nothing but a humbug … Well I never seen the like since I been born Sailor on the fife-rail crackin' out corn I said, you're nothing but a humbug … Now, the blackbird said unto the crow Why do you bother that farmer so Well that's been that way since Adam was born Scratchin' and diggin' up farmers' corn I said, you're nothing but a humbug … Now, the blackbird unto that crow Don't tell the pretty gals all I know So, it's hoist her high and hoist her dry Hoist her high for a bulgine pie full chorus twice
