I lived in a place called Okfuskee |
| [00:15.47] |
And I had a little girl in a holler tree |
| [00:19.98] |
I said, "Little girl, it's plain to see |
| [00:25.84][00:54.08][01:34.09][01:58.83][02:52.08][03:30.33][03:44.50][03:49.14] |
Ain't nobody that can sing like me |
| [00:28.56][03:16.00] |
Ain't nobody that can sing like me" |
| [00:36.28] |
She said, "It's hard for me to see |
| [00:40.55] |
How one little boy got so ugly" |
| [00:46.60] |
Yes, my little girly, that might be |
| [00:51.14][02:49.20] |
But there ain't nobody that can sing like me |
| [00:59.18][01:04.24][02:03.77][02:08.56][03:20.88][03:25.60][03:34.90][03:39.69] |
Way over yonder in the minor key |
| [01:09.01][01:31.10][02:13.43] |
There ain't nobody that can sing like me |
| [01:16.62] |
We walked down by the Buckeye Creek |
| [01:21.47] |
To see the frog eat the goggle eye bee |
| [01:26.42] |
To hear that west wind whistle to the east |
| [01:41.78] |
Oh my little girly, will you let me see |
| [01:46.50] |
Where over yonder where the wind blows free? |
| [01:51.38] |
Nobody can see in our holler tree |
| [01:55.85] |
And there ain't nobody that can sing like me |
| [02:35.12] |
Her mama cut a switch from a cherry tree |
| [02:39.97] |
And laid it on to she and me |
| [02:44.73] |
It stung lots worse than a hive of bees |
| [02:59.46] |
Now I have walked a long long ways |
| [03:04.10] |
I still look back to my Tanglewood days |
| [03:08.57] |
I've led lots of girlies since then to stray |
| [03:13.13] |
Saying, "Ain't nobody that can sing like me |
