Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Gotta get her outta there
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Mama says it just ain't fair
One night mama went to fetch us up a sweet potato
Fell down the cellar stairs
Stork dropped in while she was on the floor
So my sister was born down there
Daddy says this ain't will be nothin' but a misery
Never will be worth a damn
But mama just loved her little sweet Potato baby
With a face like a parboiled yam
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Gotta get her outta there
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Mama says it just ain't fair
Potato grew up to be as pretty as a peach
In her calico and honey yellow curls
Went to the apple cider ball at the armory
With all the other ripe and ready girls
Sheriff Dan Pike, picked Potato for the polka
But she spurned him with a fiddle de-dee
And before she could turn around and find another partner
Sheriff took her into custody
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Gotta get her outta there
Come on boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Mama says it just ain't fair
Mama 'n' daddy put together quite a little posse
Countin' me and Jack and cousin Will
We all hopped into the old Chevy pickup
And we caught รขโฌ~em at the top of the hill
Daddy took his Remington and shot away the lock
For to set his little darlin' free
But Potato said, รขโฌ1โ2Daddy, shut the golden door
Sheriff wants to marry meรขโฌ
Let's go boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Guess we better leave her there
Let's go boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Mama says it's more than fair
Let's go boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Guess we better leave her there
Let's go boys, Potato's in the paddy wagon
Mama says it's more than fair
Mama says it's more than fair
Mama says it's more than fair
