We went home to settle down
Corinne chased me round and round.
Said "Now Papa, don't you run,
You're my meat, you son of a gun."

chorus

She called in the neighbors to head me off
Made a high dive from the old hayloft
About daybreak, I must say,
In a peanut haze sweet mama strayed.

chorus

Well, the goobers flew and the hay went wild,
Fireman, fireman, save my child!
Never again will I settle down
With the girl they call Corinna Brown.
