Crawdad hole - Lyrics
Traditional Folk Song
Performed by, Dan D. Dirges

You get a line and I'll get a pole, Honey,
You get a line and I'll get a pole, Babe.
You get a line and I'll get a pole,
We'll go down to the crawdad hole,
Honey, sugar baby mine.

Sittin' on the bank 'til your feet get cold, Honey,
Sittin' on the bank 'til your feet get cold, Babe,
Sittin' on the bank 'til your feet get cold,
watching that crawdad dig his hole,
Honey, sugar baby mine.

What you gonna do when the well goes dry, Honey,
What you gonna do when the well goes dry, Babe,
What you gonna do when the well goes dry,
Gonna sit on the bank and cry cry cry
Honey, sugar baby mine.

Get up old man you slept too late, Honey,
Get up old man you slept too late, Babe,
Get up old man you slept too late,
That crawdad man's done passed your gate,
Honey, sugar baby mine.

Yonder comes a man with a pack on his back, Honey,
Yonder comes a man with a pack on his back, Babe,
Yonder comes a man with a pack on his back,
Packin' all the crawdads he can pack,
Honey, sugar baby mine.

You get a line and I'll get a pole, Honey,
You get a line and I'll get a pole, Babe.
You get a line and I'll get a pole,
We'll go down to the crawdad hole,
Honey, sugar baby mine.
