Note: Benton Flippen didn’t sing, but the Uncle Dave Macon words work just fine here.

Don’t you rock-im dye-dee-o
Don’t you rock-im dye-dee-o
Don’t you rock-im dye-dee-o
Don’t you rock-im dye-dee-o

Note: After each line of the verse, either play the fiddle part as an answer back or sing “sail away ladies, sail away.”

Hush now darling don’t you cry
You’ll be an angel when you die

I’m going back to Tenessee
That’s the place I want to be

Whevener I get my new house done
I’ll love them pretty girls one by one
