Old Joe Clark |
| Farethee well Old Joe Clark |
| Farethee well I say |
| Farethe well Old Joe Clark |
| I’m bound go go away |
| I will not go to Old Joe’s house |
| I’ll tell ya the reason why |
| Every floor in Old Joes’s house |
| Is filled with chicken pie |
| Old Joe Clark he did take sick |
| And what do ya think ailed him? |
| He drank a churn of butter milk |
| And then his stomach failed him |
| I will not marry an old maid |
| And I’ll tell ya the reason why |
| Her neck’s so long and stringy boys |
| I’m afraid she’ll never die |
| Old Joe Clark he did get drunk |
| And he sat down to his supper |
| He leaned over at the dinner table |
| And stoved his nose in the butter |
