Muskrat, oh muskrat, what makes you smell so bad?
Layin' around the farmer's house eatin' up all he had
Eatin' up all he had, eatin' up all he had
Boys, eatin' up all he had
ย
Muskrat, oh muskrat, I'll track him through the sand
Muskrat, oh muskrat, gonna catch him if I can
Catch him if I can, I'll catch him if I can
Boys, I'll catch him if I can
Just found out where he's been a-usin' last night
ย
Muskrat, oh muskrat, catch you sure as you're born
Runnin' around all over the field eatin' up all my corn
Eatin' up all my corn, eatin' up all my corn
Boys, eatin' up all my corn
Gnawin' on every big ear he can find
ย
Muskrat, oh muskrat, I trapped him on the bank
I'll skin him out and stretch his hide and tack it on a plank
I'll tack it on a plank, tack it on a plank
Boys, I'll tack it on a plank
ย
Muskrat, oh muskrat, trapped him on the farm
Sell hides when they get dry to keep some pretty gal warm
To keep some pretty gal warm, keep some pretty gal warm
Boys, to keep some pretty gal warm
ย
Muskrat, muskrat, what makes you smell so bad?
Layin' around the farmer's house eatin' up all he had
Eatin' up all he had, eatin' up all he had
Boys, eatin' up all he had
Even been in the onion patch
