Lyrics

[00:06.42]
[00:10.64] I lived in a place called Okfuskee
[00:13.94]
[00:15.31] And I had a little girl in a holler tree
[00:18.56]
[00:20.61] I said little girl it's plain to see
[00:23.87]
[00:25.91] Ain't nobody that can sing like me
[00:29.24] Ain't nobody that can sing like me
[00:31.72]
[00:36.30] She said it's hard for me to see
[00:39.89]
[00:41.41] How one little boy got so ugly
[00:44.39]
[00:46.69] Yes my little girly that might be
[00:49.47]
[00:51.21] But there ain't nobody that can sing like me
[00:54.51] Ain't nobody that can sing like me
[00:56.77]
[00:59.37] Way over yonder in the minor key
[01:01.97]
[01:04.18] Way over yonder in the minor key
[01:06.84]
[01:09.13] There ain't nobody that can sing like me
[01:11.87]
[01:16.82] We walked down by the Buckeye Creek
[01:19.87]
[01:21.49] To see the frog eat the goggle eye bee
[01:24.38]
[01:26.45] To hear that west wind whistle to the east
[01:29.89]
[01:31.14] There ain't nobody that can sing like me
[01:34.59] Ain't nobody that can sing like me
[01:36.83]
[01:41.96] Oh my little girly will you let me see
[01:44.87]
[01:46.52] Where over Yonder where the wind blows free
[01:49.59]
[01:51.46] Nobody can see in our holler tree
[01:54.65]
[01:55.94] And there ain't nobody that can sing like me
[01:59.31] Ain't nobody that can sing like me
[02:01.83]
[02:03.83] Way over yonder in the minor key
[02:07.36]
[02:08.57] Way over yonder in the minor key
[02:12.14]
[02:13.53] There ain't nobody that can sing like me
[02:16.48]
[02:35.09] Her mama cut a switch from a cherry tree
[02:38.53]
[02:39.94] And laid it on to she and me
[02:43.09]
[02:44.62] It stung lots worse than a hive of bees
[02:48.27]
[02:49.19] But there ain't nobody that can sing like me
[02:52.57] Ain't nobody that can sing like me
[02:55.03]
[02:59.56] Now I have walked a long long ways
[03:02.80]
[03:04.22] And I still look back to my Tanglewood days
[03:07.51]
[03:08.66] I've led lots of girlies since then to stray
[03:12.60]
[03:13.32] Sayin' "Ain't nobody that can sing like me
[03:16.61] Ain't nobody that can sing like me"
[03:18.86]
[03:21.05] Way over Yonder in the minor key
[03:24.07]
[03:25.59] Way over Yonder in the minor key
[03:28.72]
[03:30.39] There ain't nobody that can sing like me
[03:33.47]
[03:35.03] Way over Yonder in the minor key
[03:37.97]
[03:39.64] Way over Yonder in the minor key
[03:42.99]
[03:44.55] There ain't nobody that can sing like me
[03:47.29]
[03:49.17] There ain't nobody that can sing like me
