We was tried and hungry... and a summer wind storm came up!
all over our camp was downed pine trees too big to jump over,

*Rattler was a fine 'ole dog as blind as he could be..
...but every night tword supper time he'd snuggle up to me..
Hear Rattler- there Rattler hear Rattler yo!

Grandma had a yeller hen, a setter as I know...
SET HER ON THREE BUZZARD EGGS.. TO hear Rattler go!

soles of my shoes is barely worn,... 'jus a little ways ahead,
is a big hollow shed, and that's where I'll rest my weary bones!
WEARY BONES! weary Bones! That's war I'll rest me weary bones!
I'll sleep there tonight while the moon's shinning bright,
'jes to lay and rest my weary bones!
