DOWN IN THE HOLLOW
(Bill Browning)
Well, pa's in the corncrib, ma's in the barn
I heard sis tellin' Irby a yarn
See you tonight when the moon's shinin' bright
Down in the holler where Sally lives
Down in the holler where Sally lives
There's not a thing now that I wouldn't give
For just one kiss from her rosie lips
Down in the holler where Sally lives
Well, pa had a jug a-sittin' up
on the shelf
I heard him say, he's gonna keep it for himself
When ma heard pa, a-pullin' the cork
She said, pa give ma just a little bitty snork
Down in the holler where Sally lives
There's not a thing now that I wouldn't give
For just one kiss from her rosie lips
Down in the holler where Sally lives
Well, junior's in the corncrib, moontin' up the ears
I heard him sayin', another batch again next year
He gets the sugar and he gets the rye
He'll be drinkin' corn liquor on the day that he dies
Down in the holler where Sally lives
There's not a thing now that I wouldn't give
For just one kiss from her rosie lips
Down in the holler where Sally lives
