Thread Name: Origins: Down the Corduroy Road
Subject: Lyr Add: DOWN THE CORDUROY ROAD
Here are some of the words...I forget the first two or so verses..

-----------
----------

Your master's name does he treat you fair
Down the corduroy road
Her name is Sue she's beyond compare
Down the beautiful corduroy road

Does she ever crack the whip...
Only when my feet should slip..

Does she move you to go faster
She says she'll put me out to pasture

Do you ever wish you were not yoked
There was that time I almost choked

How often have you climbed this mountain
So many times I just stopped counting

Heave and trudge heave and trudge..
An extra yank when the sled won't budge

A teamster's life is never dull
Not when there's all these trees to pull

We'll always work so have no fears
They'll need us for two hundred years
