Can someone help me with the lyrics to John Dillshow´s talk in the tune "Sand Mountain Drag"? There's a few line that I can't hear on my record.

Hi Joe! Thank you for your answere. Sorry that you have'nt heard the tune. I have it on a re-recording on a Document Records CD. Its an Amerikan Old-time tune from the 20th. Its John Dilleshaw talking some kind of lyrics to music. He never sing, always talk. It goes:
"Sure a lots folks down here to night. Where do all these people come from? Never seen so many good-looking gals in my life." ... and so on. I think it's a nice tune and would like to have all that lyrics, but I can't hear all the words.
Maybe I will try again on Mudcat in a few days.

SAND MOUNTAIN DRAG
Seven Foot Dilly and the Dill Pickles
(John Dilleshaw)

Sure are lotsa folks down here to night.
Where do all these people come from?
Never seen so many good-looking gals in my life.
Look at that red dress down over yonder.
Yeah that's her.
I know that old boy she's with.
I used to play baseball with him 8 or 10 years ago
We played down in Smith's tangier
He's on base - I'm off to high fly
Blow over the fence
I sure did and sump'n I thought - was third base
Boys that 'uz the good old days
Here comes that gal now
Glad to meet you I'm sure
Now listen nobody knows that I know you - nobody knows that you know me
You care to, we'll have lunch in here every day just the same
But listen woman, if you talk in your sleep, don't mention my name
Well I got her all dated up boys
Everythin's all set
She's goin' to meet me next friday night

I listened to several sound samples at allmusic, and here's what I was able to transcribe:

Where'd all these people come from?
Never seen as many good-lookin' gals in my life.
Look at that red-dress gal over yonder.
Yeah, that's her.
I know that ol' boy she's with.
I used to play baseball with him 8 or 10 years ago
We played down in Smith's pasture.
He 'as [was] on base. I knocked a high fly
Plumb over the fence.
I slid into sump'n I thought [was third base]
