Dance Me a Jig - The Brothers Four (四兄弟)
Get along there Jeff Davis get along there General Lee
I'm going up to the freedom land
Got me two pigs got 'em here in my hand
The bible says it's wrong to steal and tell lies
So I asked mighty lord to close all his eyes
While I dance me a jig and I dance me a jog
'Cause I got me a pig and I got me a hog
Ain't no one gonna take 'em from me
Get along there Jeff Davis get along there General Lee
I didn't want no posses chasing after me
So I took all the livestock and set 'em free
Now master 's so mad that he's liable to bust
'Cause he gotta catch 'em all while I'm kicking up dust
While I dance me a jig and I dance me a jog
'Cause I got me a pig lord and I got me a hog
Ain't no one gonna take 'em from me
Get along there Jeff Davis get along there General Lee
If you pigs are wondering how you got your names
Well you and them two rascals are just the same
And if you don't stop acting like your two namesakes
I'll have roast pork in the morning and tasty ham steaks
While I dance me a jig and I dance me a jog
'Cause I got me a pig and I got me a hog
Ain't no one gonna take 'em from me
Get along there Jeff Davis get along there fool
I am an old woman but I'd like to bet
That I'm one woman old master won't forget
The look on his face will be something to see
When he finds the pigs are gone and I am free
I'm going up to the freedom land
Got me two pigs got 'em here in my hand
The bible says it's wrong to steal and tell lies
So I asked mighty lord to close all his eyes
While I dance me a jig and I dance me a jog
'Cause I got me a pig lord and I got me a hog
Ain't no one gonna take 'em from me
Ain't no one gonna take 'em from me
Get along there Jeff Davisl get along there General Lee
