Hi, I'd love these lyrics also ... I have loved this song since I was a little girl as it seemed to be a "nonsense" song. Now that I am older and realize that there is definite meaning behind all of the words I would dearly love to be able to sing along and know what it is all about!!! I am guessing it is something about drinking since I think I can suss out "the only 'uns sober were the calf and the coo (cow)"
