GONNA KEEP MY SKILLET GREASY (2) I was going up the street Just to buy me a ham of meat Gonna keep my skillet greasy All the time, time, time Gonna keep my skillet greasy All the time. I'm going to buy me a quart of brandy Just to give to my little Mandy And keep her good and boozy All the time, time, time And keep her good and boozy All the time. If I could hang around your door I would never work no more I'd just hang around your shanty All the time, time, time I would hang around your shanty All the time. Collected from Frank Proffit O de times is very hard I'm gonna get me a dime's worth of lard I'm gonna keep my skillet greasy if I can. If I can, can, can If I can, can, can I'm gonna keep my skillet greasy if I can. I will go to ol' man Gene's Get myself a sack of beans I'm gonna keep my skillet greasy if I can If I can, can, can etc. O de rabbit's in de log I ain't got no rabbit dog Goin' to keep my baby eatin' if I can. If I can, can, can etc. Last three verses from American Negro Songs and Spirituals, Work From Traditional American Folksongs, Warner and Warner @banjo @food filename[ SKILLTG2 TUNE FILE: SKILLTG2 CLICK TO PLAY RG apr97 |
