Subject: Lyr Add: GO HOME WITH THE GIRLS IN THE MORNING
For Barbara Taylor.

GO HOME WITH THE GIRLS IN THE MORNIN'
Written by Bob Wills & Tommy Duncan
As recorded by Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys with vocal by Tommy Duncan, 1947.

Mama, can I go out and play
Yes, my darling daughter
Hang your clothes on the Huckleberry bush
And don't go near the water.

CHORUS
I ain't gonna eat no supper here tonight
I ain't goin' home til morning
Dance all night 'til broad daylight
Go home with the girls in the morning.

Ain't saw my gal in about three weeks
I know that may sound funny
If I ain't there by the middle of the week
Then I'll be there next Sunday.

CHORUS

Over the river to feed the ducks
Over the river to Charley's
Over the river to feed the ducks
And gather in the Barley.

CHORUS

Jaybird died with the whoopin' cough
Parrot died with the colic
'Long came a Redbird sittin' on the (*)
Flyin' on down to the (*)

CHORUS
