I come to town the other night
to hear the noise and see the fight
he was a -runnin' around, sayin'
Old Antucka is a -comin' to town
Get out the way, Old Antucka,
you're too late to get your supper
Sub was over breakfast cookin'
Now Old Antucka, he come to town,
And the hound dog barkin',
Get out the way, Old Antucka,
too late to get your supper
Supper's over, breakfast cookin',
Now old Dan Tucker come to town,
Leadin' the ladies round and round,
And then to the gal you love the best.
Get out the way, old Dan Tucker,
You're too late to get your supper.
Supper's over, breakfast cookin',
he got drunk and he fell,
And the fire in him kicked up a shunk,
And the red hot coal went in his shoe,
And hoo -wee, how the ashes flew.
Get out the way, old Dan Tucker,
you're too late to get your supper.
Sup per's over, breakfast's cooking,
Now old Dan Tucker and I fell out,
what do you think it was all about?
I kicked him on the shin,
that's the way this row begins.
Get out the way, old Dan Tucker,
you're too late to get your supper.
Now old Dan Tucker's a fine old man,
he washed his face in a frying pan,
And he combed his hair with
And 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 cooking,
just stands there looking.
