Well i come in on a night train[00:00:13]
With an arm full of box cars[00:00:15]
On the wings of a magpie[00:00:17]
Cross a hooligan night[00:00:18]
And i busted up a chifforobe[00:00:20]
Way out by the cocomo[00:00:22]
Cooked up a mess a mulligan[00:00:24]
And got into a fight[00:00:26]
Whistlin' past the graveyard[00:00:27]
Steppin' on a crack[00:00:30]
I'm a mean motherhubbard[00:00:32]
Papa one eyes jack[00:00:33]
You probably seen me sleepin'[00:00:35]
Out by the railroad tracks[00:00:37]
Go on and ask the prince of darkness[00:00:39]
What about all thet smoke[00:00:41]
Come from the stack[00:00:43]
Sometimes i kill myself a jackel[00:00:44]
Suck out all the blood[00:00:45]
Steal myself a stationwagon[00:00:47]
Drivin' through the mud[00:00:49]
Whistlin' past the graveyard[00:00:51]
Steppin' on a crack[00:00:53]
I'm mean motherhubbard[00:00:55]
Papa one eyed jack[00:00:57]
I know you seen my headlights[00:00:58]
And the honkin' of my horn[00:01:00]
I'm callin' out my bloodhounds[00:01:02]
Chase the devil through the corn[00:01:03]
Last night i chugged the mississippi[00:01:06]
Now that suckers dry as a bone[00:01:08]
Born in a taxi cab[00:01:10]
I'm never comin' home[00:01:12]
Whistlin' past the graveyard[00:01:14]
Steppin' on a crack[00:01:16]
I'm mean motherhubbard[00:01:18]
Papa one eyed jack[00:01:18]
Myeyes have seen the glory[00:01:21]
Of the drainin' og the ditch[00:01:23]
I only come to baton rouge[00:01:25]
To find myself a witch[00:01:27]
I'm-ona snatch me up a[00:01:29]
Couple of em every time itrains[00:01:31]
You see a locomotive[00:01:33]
Probably thinkin' its a train[00:01:35]
Whistlin' past the graveyard[00:01:37]
Steppin' on a crack[00:01:39]
I'm a mean motherhubbard[00:01:40]
Papa one eyed jack[00:01:41]
What you think is the sunshine[00:01:44]
Is just a twinkle in my eye[00:01:46]
That ring around my fingers[00:01:48]
Just the 4th of july[00:01:50]
When i get a little bit lonesome[00:01:52]
And a tear falls from my check[00:01:54]
Theres gonna be an ocean in[00:01:56]
The middle of the week[00:01:58]
Whistlin' past the graveyard[00:02:00]
Steppin' on a crack[00:02:01]
I'm mean motherhubbard[00:02:03]
Papa one eyed jack[00:02:05]
I rode into town on a night train[00:02:08]
With an arm full of box cars[00:02:10]
On the wings of a magpie[00:02:11]
Cross a hooligan night[00:02:14]
I'm-ona tear me off a rainbow[00:02:15]
And wear it for a tie[00:02:17]
I never told the truth[00:02:19]
So i can never tell a lie[00:02:21]
Whistlin' past the graveyard[00:02:23]
Steppin' on a crack[00:02:25]
I'm mean motherhubbard[00:02:28]
Papa one eyed jack[00:02:29]
