That's My Pa - Sheb Wooley[00:00:00]
Now back in the country where I was born[00:00:09]
It's on a little ol' hillside farm[00:00:11]
Ma pa raised six kids and one of 'em was me[00:00:13]
In the fall of the year when the fields got white[00:00:17]
We'd start pickin' cotton about daylight[00:00:20]
And on Saturday pa would take it all to town[00:00:22]
Then along about dark when everything was still[00:00:26]
We could tell it was pa comin' down the hill[00:00:28]
'Cause he'd rear back and he'd sound off something like this[00:00:30]
Uh huh uh uh uh uh uh ha ha ha ha ha[00:00:35]
Uh huh uh uh uh uh uh ha ha ha ha ha[00:00:43]
We'd go out to meet him with a lantern light[00:00:52]
'Cause the road got crooked on a Saturday night[00:00:54]
And he'd come on down the[00:00:56]
Hill and he'd stop in the yard[00:00:57]
He'd sit up there on the wagon[00:01:00]
Seat and he'd say boys I'm hard to beat[00:01:02]
Two hundred pound of steel and twice as hard[00:01:05]
Got him right and woolly and full of flees[00:01:09]
And I never been carried by old knees[00:01:11]
Then he'd rear back and below[00:01:13]
Out a chorus or two[00:01:15]
Uh huh uh uh uh uh uh ha ha ha ha ha[00:01:18]
Uh huh uh uh uh uh[00:01:27]
Uh ha ha ha that's my pa[00:01:30]
Got him rough and ready and about half wild[00:01:35]
And he'd whip anybody about half a mile[00:01:37]
'Cause there wasn't anybody else there 'cept me and little Skeet[00:01:39]
He was just as tough as a hickory brien[00:01:44]
And I could dive deeper and came up drier[00:01:46]
And he did it too right off that wagon seat[00:01:48]
Well it shook him up when he hit the ground[00:01:52]
But pa got up and looked around[00:01:55]
And then reared back and he let[00:01:57]
Us have it again[00:01:59]
Uh huh uh uh uh uh uh ha ha ha ha ha[00:02:01]
Uh huh uh uh uh uh[00:02:10]
Uh ha ha ha ha ha ha[00:02:13]
Uh huh uh uh uh uh[00:02:19]
