Hog Eye Man Lyrics
Hog Eye Man - Martin Carthy
Composer：Traditional
Oh hand me down my riding cane
I'm off to meet my darlin' Jane
And a hog eye
Railroad navvy with his hog eye
Steady on a jig with a hog eye oh
She wants the hog eye man
Oh the hog eye man is the man for me
Sailin' down from o'er the sea
And a hog eye
Railroad navvy with his hog eye
Steady on a jig with a hog eye oh
She wants the hog eye man
Oh he came to the shack where sally did dwell
He knocked on the door he rung a bell
And a hog eye
Railroad navvy with his hog eye
Steady on a jig with a hog eye oh
She wants the hog eye man
Oh who's been here since I been gone
Railroad navvy with his sea boots on
And a hog eye
Railroad navvy with his hog eye
Steady on a jig with a hog eye oh
She wants the hog eye man
If I catch him here with sally once more
I'll sling me hook go to sea once more
And a hog eye
Railroad navvy with his hog eye
Steady on a jig with a hog eye oh
She wants the hog eye man
Oh sally's in the garden sifting sand
Her hog eye man sittin' hand in hand
And a hog eye
Railroad navvy with his hog eye
Steady on a jig with a hog eye oh
She wants the hog eye man
Oh sally's in the garden punchin' dough
The cheeks of her arse go chuff chuff chuff
And a hog eye
Railroad navvy with his hog eye
Steady on a jig with a hog eye oh
She wants the hog eye man
Oh I won't wear a hog eye damned if I do
Got jiggers in his feet and he can't wear shoes
And a hog eye
Railroad navvy with his hog eye
Steady on a jig with a hog eye oh
She wants the hog eye man
Oh the hog eye man is the man for me
He is blind and he cannot see
And a hog eye
Railroad navvy with his hog eye
Steady on a jig with a hog eye oh
She wants the hog eye man
Oh a hog eye ship and a hog eye crew
A hog eye mate and a skipper too
And a hog eye
Railroad navvy with his hog eye
Steady on a jig with a hog eye oh
She wants the hog eye man
