Hi-De-Ho

Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi

Gonna get me a piece of the sky

Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

I'm singin', hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho

I've been down so long, bottom looked like up

Once I thought that second saves was enough to fill my cup

Now I offered all I got, and that ain't no way to live

Of being taken by the ones ho got the least amount to give

Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi

I'm gonna get me a piece of the sky

Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

I'm singin', hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho

Once I met the devil, he was mighty slick

Tempted me with worldly goods

He said that you could have your pick

But when he laid the paper on me

And he showed me where to sign

I said, thank you very kindly, but I'm in too great a need of mind

Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi

I'm gonna get me a piece of the sky, God knows

I'm gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

I'm singin', hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho

(Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi) get up children

(Gonna get me a piece of the sky)

Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

I'm singin', hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho and I'm sayin'

(Hi-de-ho) hi-de-ho (hi-de-hi)

(Gonna get me a piece of the sky) ooh

Gonna get me some of that old sweet, sweet roll

Singin' hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho
