[00:00.000] 作曲 : Traditional/George Nichols
[00:05.419] In old Kentuck in de arternoon,
[00:08.117] We sweep de floor wid a bran new broom,
[00:12.975] And arter dat we form a ring
[00:15.722] And dis de song dat we do sing,
[00:18.334] Oh! Clare de kitchen old folks young folks
[00:21.042] Clare de kitchen old folks young folks
[00:23.703] Old Virginny never tire.
[00:28.790] I went to de creek, I couldn't git across,
[00:31.451] I'd nobody wid me but an old blind horse;
[00:36.210] But old Jim Crow came riding by,
[00:38.876] Says he, "old feller, your horse will die.
[00:41.680] Oh! Clare de kitchen old folks young folks
[00:44.254] Clare de kitchen old folks young folks
[00:46.820] Old Virginny never tire.
[00:52.181] My horse fell down upon de spot,
[00:54.550] Says he, "don't you see his eyes is sot;"
[00:59.534] So I took out my knife and off wid his skin,
[01:02.195] And when he comes to life I'll ride him agin.
[01:04.949] Oh! Clare de kitchen old folks young folks

[01:15.245] A Jay bird sot on a hickery limb,
[01:17.947] He wink'd at me and I wink'd at him;
[01:22.654] I pick'd up a stone and hit his shin.
[01:25.312] Says he, "you better not do that agin."
[01:28.016] Oh! Clare de kitchen old folks young folks
[01:30.535] Clare de kitchen old folks young folks
[01:33.198] Old Virginny never tire.
[02:01.382] A bull frog dress'd in soger's close,
[02:03.946] Went in de field to shoot some crows;
[02:08.886] De crows smell powder and fly away,
[02:11.457] De bull frog mighty mad dat day.
[02:14.196] Oh! Clare de kitchen old folks young folks

[02:19.551] Old Virginny never tire.
[02:24.728] Den down I went wid Cato Moore,
[02:27.436] To see de steamboat come ashore,
[02:32.375] Every man for himself, so I picked up a trunk,
[02:34.747] "Leff off, said de Captain, "or burn you wid a chunk."
[02:37.399] Oh! Clare de kitchen old folks young folks
[02:40.230] Clare de kitchen old folks young folks
[02:42.746] Old Virginny never tire.
