Old Joe Clark |
Old Joe Clark’s dead and gone |
Now I wish him well |
To make me wear the ball and chain |
To make my ankles swell |
It’s round, round Old Joe Clark |
Goodbye Betty Brown |
Round, round Old Joe Clark |
I’m gonna leave this town |
Old Joe Clark killed a man |
And throwed him in the branch |
And Old Joe Clark’s gonna get hanged |
Ain’t no other chance |
Round, round Old Joe Clark |
Round, round I say |
Round, round Old Joe Clark |
I’m gonna leave today |
I went down to Old Joe’s house |
He lived out of town |
Every tooth in Old Joe’s head |
Was smiling a quarter round |
It’s round, round Old Joe Clark |
Goodbye Betty Brown |
Round, round Old Joe Clark |
I’m gonna leave this town |
Wished I had a nickel |
And I wished I had a dime |
And I wished I had a pretty gal |
I’d kiss her all the time |
Round, round Old Joe Clark |
Round, round I say |
Round, round Old Joe Clark |
I’m gonna leave today |
How did this Beaumont rag go, Woody? |
That’s pretty hard, and I don’t know whether I can play that or not |
