1. I had a cow that slobbered bad,
Down in the Arkin-saw,
I took'er to m'Great-Grandad,
Down in the Arkin-saw.
Ast'im what t'do fer it
Down in the Arkin-saw,
Granpaw said, "Teach that cow t'spit!"
Down in the Arkin-saw.
Chorus:
Down in the Arkin,
Down in the Arkin,
Down in the Arkin-saw,
The sweetest gal I ever knew
Was down in the Arkin-saw.
2. When I was just a little lad,
Down in the Arkin-saw,
My Maw got married to my Dad
Down in the Arkin-saw.
Grampaw got mad and cussed a-while
Down in the Arkin-saw,
Til Grammaw said, "It's the latest style,"
Down in the Arkin-saw!
Chorus

3. I loved a gal, her name was Lil,
Down in the Arkin-saw,
I hugged that girl all over the hill
Way down in the Arkin-saw.
Her Paw got mad and called me "Son"
Down in the Arkin-saw;
He tied the knot with his rifle-gun
Way down in the Arkin-saw!
Chorus
4. Now I've got a gal and her name is Phyl
Down in the Arkin-saw.
I loved her once and I love her still
Down in the Arkin-saw.
Now she's cross-eyed, that's a fact.
She cries and the tears roll down her back
Down in the Arkansas.
Chorus (twice)
