got drunk,
jumped in the fire, kicked up a chunk,
Red -hot coal flew down his shoe,
World got a -mighty,
all the cuss words flew.
Get out the way, old Dan Tucker,
you're too late to get your supper.
Supper's over,
breakfast's cookin'.
Old Dan Tucker don't
stand there lookin'.
Old Dan Tucker was a mighty man,
he washed his face in a fryin' pan.
Combed his hair with a wagon wheel,
died with a toothache in his heel.
Get out the way, old Dan Tucker,
you're too late to get your supper.
Supper's over,
breakfast's cookin'.
Old Dan Tucker don't
stand there lookin'.
Old Dan began early in life
to play banjo and win him a wife,
but every time he'd come to keep,
darn fool played himself to sleep.
Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker,
you're too late to get your supper.
Supper's over, breakfast's cooking.
Old Dan Tucker don't
stand there looking.
Old Dan Tucker's mother -in -law
was the ugliest thing I ever saw.
eyes stuck out, her nose pushed in,
her upper lip hung down her chin.
Get out of way, Old Dan Tucker,
you're too late to get your supper.
Supper's over, breakfast took it.
Old Dan Tucker don't
stand a -lugging.
It doesn't seem like very long since
Old Dan Tucker's been here and gone.
I bet he hated to leave this place,
cause every gal's got a pretty face.
Get out the way, old Antucker,
you're too late
To get your supper,
supper's over,
breakfast's cookin'
Old Antucker don't stand a chance.
