Hi De Ho (That Old Sweet Roll) |
| Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi |
| Gonna find me a piece of the sky |
| Gonna find me some of that old sweet roll |
| Singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-di-ho |
| Listen, I’ve been down so low |
| That the bottom looked like up |
| Once I felt like second saves |
| Was enough to fill my cup |
| Now I’ve offered all I have |
| But it ain’t no way to live |
| Being taken by the ones who have |
| The least amount to give |
| Singing hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi |
| Got to find me a piece of the sky |
| Gonna find me some of that old sweet roll |
| Singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho |
| I wanna tell you |
| Once I met the devil |
| He was mighty slick |
| Tempted me with worldly goods |
| Said I could have my pick |
| But when he laid the paper on me |
| And showed me where to sign |
| I said «Thank you very kindly |
| But I’m in too great a need of mine» |
| Singing hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi, oh |
| Got to find me a piece of that sky |
| Gonna find me some of that old sweet roll |
| Singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho, yeah |
| Hi-de-hi-de-ho |
| Hi-de-hi-de-ho, yeah |
| Hi-de-hi-de-ho |
| Hi-de-hi-de-hi |
| Talking 'bout hi-de-hi-de-ho |
