Bilingual
As I was a-gwine on down the road
With a tired team and a heavy load
I cracked my whip and the leader sprung
I says day-day and the wagon rongue
Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Grab your partner take her to the floor
And we're gonna dance to
Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Doe-si-doe and then see-saw
And promenade to turkey in the straw
Met Mr. Catfish coming down the stream
Say Mr. Catfish "What does you mean"
Caught Mr. Catfish by the snout
And turned Mr. Catfish wrong side out
Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Do a doe-si-doe and then see-saw
Then promenade to turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Swing your lady round some more
Then promenade to turkey in the straw
Came to the river and I couldn't
Get across
I paid five dollars for an old blind hoss
Wouldn't go ahead nor he wouldn't
Stand still
So he went up and down like an old saw mill
Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Doe-si-doe and then see-saw
Then promenade to turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Turkey in the straw
Swing your lady round some more
Then promenade to turkey in the straw
Swing your lady
(Turkey in the straw)
Up to the middle
(Turkey in the straw)
Come back home
Turkey in the straw
