The Longest Johns - Hog Eye Man lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh, hand me down my riding cane I'm off to meet my darlin' Jane [Chorus] With a hog-eye, oh Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh She wants the hog-eye man [Verse 2] Oh, the hog-eye man is the man for me He was born and raised in Tennessee [Chorus] With a hog-eye, oh Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh She wants the hog-eye man [Verse 3] Oh, he came to thе shack where Sally did dwell Hе knocked on the door and he rung the bell [Chorus] With a hog-eye, oh Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh She wants the hog-eye man [Verse 4] Oh, who's been here since I been gone? A railroad navvy with his sea boots on [Chorus] With a hog-eye, oh Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh She wants the hog-eye man [Instrumental] [Verse 5] Oh, Sally's in the garden sifting sand The hog-eye man sittin' hand in hand [Chorus] With a hog-eye, oh Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh She wants the hog-eye man [Verse 6] Oh, Sally's in the garden shelling peas Her long yellow hair hangin' down to her knees [Chorus] With a hog-eye, oh Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh She wants the hog-eye man [Verse 7] Oh, I won't wear a hog-eye, damned if I do Got jiggers in his feet and he can't wear shoes [Chorus] With a hog-eye, oh Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh She wants the hog-eye man [Verse 8] Oh, a hog-eye ship and a hog-eye crew A hog-eyed mate and a skipper too [Chorus] With a hog-eye, oh Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh She wants the hog-eye man [Outro] Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh She wants the hog-eye man
