Long John Baldry - Hambone lyrics

Artist: Long John Baldry

album: Everything Stops For Tea


Hambone, hambone
Hambone, hambone, where you been?
Round the world and I'm going again
What you gonna do when you come back?
Take a little walk by the railroad track, hambone
Hambone, hambone, have you heard?
Papa's gonna buy me a mocking bird
And if that mocking bird don't sing
Papa's gonna buy me a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring don't shine
Papa's gonna take it to the five and dime, hambone
Hambone, hambone, where you been?
Round the world and I'm going again
I just skinned an alley cat
To make my wife a Sunday hat
Took the hide right off a goat
To make my wife a Sunday coat
Hambone, hambone, where's your wife?
Out to the kitchen, cooking beans and rice
Hambone, hambone
Hambone, hambone, trying to eat
Ketchup on his elbow, pickle on his feet
Bread in the basket, chicken in the stew
Supper on the fire for me and you
Look at him holler, look at him moan
That hambone just can't hambone
Hambone, hambone
