Turkey In The Straw

Turkey In The Straw - Twin Sisters Productions

As I was a-goin' on down the road

With a tired team and a heavy load

I cracked my whip and the leader sprung

I says day-day to the wagon tongue

Turkey in the straw

Turkey in the straw

Roll 'em up and twist 'em up a high tuck a-haw

And hit 'em up a tune called Turkey in the Straw

Went out to milk and I didn't know how

I milked the goat instead of the cow

A monkey sittin' on a pile of straw

A-winkin' at his mother-in-law

Turkey in the straw

Turkey in the straw

Roll 'em up and twist 'em up a high tuck a-haw

And hit 'em up a tune called Turkey in the Straw

I came to the river and I couldn't get across

So I paid five dollars for a big bay hoss

Well he couldn't go ahead and he wouldn't stand still

So he went up and down like an old saw mill

Turkey in the straw

Turkey in the straw

Roll 'em up and twist 'em up a high tuck a-haw

And hit 'em up a tune called Turkey in the Straw

Did you ever go fishin' on a warm summer day

When all the fish were swimmin' in the bay

With their hands in their pockets

And their pockets in their pants

Did you ever see a fishie Do the Hootchy-Kootchy Dance
