Thread Name: Lyr Req: Old Dan Tucker (from Grandpa Jones)
Subject: Lyric req: Granpa Jones 'Old Dan Tucker'
A friend of mine is trying to work out the words to the last verse of Grandpa Jones' version of "Old Dan Tucker." Can anyone help?

The verse in question goes:

Dan wronged his wife, and to make amends,
He built a coop, just to house their hens.
It had two doors, 'cause according to Dan,
If it had four,___________

Any thoughts or sources would be much appreciated. I've checked the DT and also Google as many ways as I can think of, to no avail. And my friend has put the CD track through every computer slow-downer that she can lay her hands on.

Thanks,
