If I make five dollars a day, Doodle bug, doodle bug take it away. Me and my honey had a falling out, She called me a red-haired roustabout.

Chorus: Down the road, down the road, I've got a sugar baby down the road. Down the road a mile and a half I swapped my horse for a cow and calf. Down and road, across by the shop, My old hat's got a hole in the top. Chorus: Down the road till you come to the turn, Rocks in the road as big as a churn. Chorus:

John come home all in a wonder, He rattled at the door just like thunder. "Who is that?" Mr. Henley cried.

Chorus: Shady Grove, my little love, Shady grove I say. Shady Grove, my little love, I'm a-bound to go away. Cheeks as red as a blooming rose, And eyes of the prettiest brown; She's the darling of my heart, The prettiest little girl in town. I wish I had a glass of wine And bread and meat for two; I'd set it all on a golden plate And give it all to you. Chorus: I wish I had me a big fine horse...

Where were you when the train left town? I'se standing on the corner with my head hung down. Hey that train, carried my girl from town, Hey-yay, yea, hey-yay. I wish to the Lord that train would wreck, Kill the engineer and break the fireman's neck. Hey that train, carried my girl from town, Hey-yay, yea, hey-yay.

Gonna build me a log cabin on a mountain so high, So I can see Willy, as she goes walking by. Chorus: Oh, the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird, Lord, she warbles as she flies; She'll never say cuckoo Till the fourth day of July.

I came to the place where the lone pilgrim lay And pensively stood by his tomb, When in a low whisper I heard something say, "How sweetly I sleep here alone." "The tempest may howl and the loud thunder roar, And gathering storms may arise, But calm is my feeling, at rest is my soul, The tears are all wiped from my eyes." "The cause of my Master compelled me from home, No kindred or relative ni...

E. Miller A horrible sight I'll now relate, On Yadkin Elk it did take place, On Christmas morning at nine o'clock, The people met an awful shock. At Marshall Triplett's this begun. The brothers met, it seemed in fun. They drank together all as one, And then the trouble it begun. Then Marshall seemed to stand in the rear, and struck Columbus with the chair, "There is one thing that I do know, Y...

Because I believe and have found salvation, When I die, when I die, I'll live again. That I may take part in the jubilation. When I die, when I die, I'll live again.

Because I'm forgiven, my soul will find heaven, When I die, when I die, I'll live again, I'll live again. The fear of the grave is remo...
