Lyrics:


Upstairs, downstairs, out in the kitchen (3x)
I met an old cook just a reelin' and a pitchin', yes sir.

Chorus:
Hot Corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn (3x)
Fair thee well, uncle Bill, see you in the morning, yes sir.

Old aunt Sally, won't you fill'em up again (3x)
I ain't had a drink since the lord knows when, yes sir.
Chorus

All I need to keep me happy
Is two little boys to call me Pappy,
One named Paul and one named Davy,
One likes ham and the other loves gravy, yes sir.
Chorus

Preacher's in the pulpit takin' in the money.
Children in the bee hive takin' in the honey.
Old aunt Sally just a jumpin' for joy,
Happiest lot of people that ever I saw, yes sir.
Chorus

Preacher's all a comin' and the children are a cryin' (3x)
Chicken heads a-wringin' and the toenails a-flyin', yes sir.
Chorus
