MY UNCLE USED TO LOVE ME BUT SHE DIED
(Roger Miller)

CHO: My Uncle used to love me but she died
A chicken ain't chicken till it's lickin'-good and fried.
Keep on the sunny side.
My Uncle used to love me but she died.

Who'll bid me quarter thirty cents for a ring o' keys?
Three sixty-five for a dollar bill of groceries?
I'll have me a car of my own someday, but till then I need me a ride.
My Uncle used to love me but she died. CHO.

Hamburger, cup o' coffee, lettuce an' tomato,
Two times a dime to see a man kiss the alligator.
One more time around free on the Ferris wheel ride.
My Uncle used to love me but she died. CHO.

Apples are for eatin' and snakes are for hissin'.
I've heard about a-huggin' an' I've heard about kissin'.
I read about it free in a fifty-cent illustrated guide.
My Uncle used to love me but she died. CHO. TWICE

Well, my Uncle used to love me but she died.
