Well, it's very hard to understand, but here's what I hear. Anybody want to give it a try? -Joe-
Sauerkraut (Riley Puckett recording)
If you will only listen to who I speak a-bout I ain't no voice to tell you how to make that sauerkraut It's made out of vinegar, so everyone suppose And of that dorsal(?) flower, they call that cabbage rose. Oh, sauerkraut is bully, I told you it was high I think I ought to know for why, I eat him all the time.
Then it's sauerkraut, then it's sauerkraut, Priced good you know, because you love it so. Then it's sauerkraut, then it's sauerkraut, Only five cents, one pint.
[Yodel]
When sauerkraut commence to smell, when ye can smell no better, We put him in that little barrel, way down in the cellar, We salt him, and salt him, we salt him without cease (?) We salt him, and salt him, and make him nice and sweet. Oh, sauerkraut is bully, I told you it was high I think I ought to know for why, I eat him all the time.
Then it's sauerkraut, then it's sauerkraut, Priced good you know, because you love it so. Then it's sauerkraut, then it's sauerkraut, Only five cents, one pint.
