Whistlin' Past The Graveyard

Well I come in on a night train

With an arm full of box cars

On the wings of a magpie

Cross a hooligan night

And I busted up a chifforobe

Way out by the cocomo

Cooked up a mess a mulligan

And got into a fightWhistlin past the graveyard

Steppin on a crack

I'm a mean motherhubbard

Papa one eyed jackYou propably seen me sleepin

Out by the railroad tracks

Go on and ask the prince of darkness

What about all thet smoke

Come from the stack

Sometimes I kill myself a jacket

Suck out all the blood

Steal myself a stationwagon

Drivin through the mudWhistlin past the graveyard

Steppin on a crack

I'm a mean motherhubbard

Papa one eyed jackI know you seen my headlights

And the honkin of my horn

I'm callin out my bloodhounds

Chase the devil through the corn

Last night I chugged the mississippi

Now that suckers dry as a bone

Born in a taxi cab

I'm never comin homeWhistlin past the graveyard

Steppin on a crack

I'm a mean motherhubbard

Papa one eyed jackMy eyes have seen the glory

Of the draining of the ditch

I only come to baton rouge

To find myself a witch

I'm-ona snatch me up a

Couple of em every time it rains

You see a locomotive

Probably thinkin it's a trainWhistlin past the graveyard

Steppin on a crack

I'm a mean motherhubbard

Papa one eyed jackWhat you think is the sunshine

Is just a twinkle in my eye

That ring around my fingers

Just the 4th of july

When I get a little bit lonesome

And a tear falls from my cheek

Theres gonna be an ocean in

The middle of the weekWhistlin past the graveyard

Steppin on a crack

I'm a mean motherhubbard

Papa one eyed jackI rode into town on a night train

With an arm full of box cars

On the wings of a magpie

Cross a hooligan night

I'm-ona tear me off a rainbow

And wear it for a tie

I never told the truth

So I can never tell a lieWhistlin past the graveyard

Steppin on a crack

I'm a mean motherhubbard

Papa one eyed jack
