Sleepy Eyed John - Johnny Horton[00:00:00]

Written By：Atchison Tex[00:00:01]

Well a-way down yonder on the Candy Creek[00:00:09]

I whittled out a fiddle from a wagon seat[00:00:12]

I tuned my fiddle and I rubbed my bow[00:00:14]

Play a little tune wherever I go[00:00:17]

Sleepy-eyed John you better get your britches on[00:00:19]

Sleepy-eyed John better tie your shoe[00:00:21]

Sleepy-eyed John you better get your britches on[00:00:24]

And try to get to heaven 'fore the Devil gets to you[00:00:26]

Well Sleepy-eyed John he stole a goose[00:00:37]

The goose he flopped but he couldn't get loose[00:00:40]

Said John to the goose[00:00:42]

If you don't be still[00:00:43]

Miss our supper down in Candyville[00:00:44]

Sleepy-eyed John you better get your britches on[00:00:47]

Sleepy-eyed John better tie your shoe[00:00:49]

Sleepy-eyed John you better get your britches on[00:00:51]

And try to get to heaven 'fore the Devil gets to you[00:00:54]

Well Sleepy-eyed John he had a wooden leg[00:01:05]

The little leg was nothing but a little wooden peg[00:01:08]

One shoe off and one shoe on[00:01:10]

He'll do the double shuffle 'til the cows come home[00:01:12]

Sleepy-eyed John you better get your britches on[00:01:15]

Sleepy-eyed John better tie your shoe[00:01:17]

Sleepy-eyed John you better get your britches on[00:01:19]

And try to get to heaven 'fore the Devil gets to you[00:01:22]

Now I got twenty dollars for to build a fence[00:01:33]

I took my money and I ain't worked since[00:01:36]

Sold my buggy and I sold my plow[00:01:38]

I wouldn't take a dollar for my journey now[00:01:40]

Sleepy-eyed John you better get your britches on[00:01:43]

Sleepy-eyed John better tie your shoe[00:01:45]

Sleepy-eyed John you better get your britches on[00:01:47]

And try to get to heaven 'fore the Devil gets to you[00:01:50]

Well over the hickory and down the pine[00:02:02]

The raccoon laughed and the old hound whined[00:02:04]

John said Sic 'em and the raccoon left[00:02:06]

They crossed Green River in a minute and a half[00:02:09]

Sleepy-eyed John you better get your britches on[00:02:11]

Sleepy-eyed John better tie your shoe[00:02:13]

Sleepy-eyed John you better get your britches on[00:02:16]

And try to get to heaven 'fore the Devil gets to you[00:02:18]
