Old yellar dog by The Jimalong Josies.


OLD YELLAR DOG

old yellar dog went trottin through the meetin house
trottin through the meetin house
trottin through the meetin house
old yellar dog went trottin through the meetin house
down in Alabam'

Brave boys here, brave boys there
brave boys here, down in Alabam'

Old joe hooker wont ya come on out the wilderness
come on out the wilderness
come on out the wilderness
old joe hooker wont you come on out the wilderness
and fight these boys in gray

CHORUS

Great big house nobody lives in,
nobody lives in, nobody lives in
great big house nobody lives in
down in alabam'

CHORUS
