Here's a swift transcription:
Roustabout (Fred Cockerham version)
Roustabout oh roustabout Where have you been so long been in the pen with the 40 dollar men Honey I'm going back again
hopeye hopeye hopeye Oh baby-o Hopeye my Lulu gal
Oh where did you get your brand new shoes Dress you wear so fine Oh I got the shoes from from a railroad man Dress from a driver in the mine.
hopeye hopeye hopeye Oh baby-o Hopeye my Lulu gal
Who's gonna shoe your pretty little feet Who's gonna glove your hand Mama will shoe my pretty little feet Poppa will glove my hand
