Lyrics
Shoulder up the gun, and whistle up the dog
Shoulder up the gun, and whistle up the dog
Out to the woods for to catch a groundhog
Oh, groundhog!
Oh run here, Sally, with a snigger and a grin
Run here, Sally, with a snigger and a grin
The groundhog gravy all over her chin
Oh, groundhog!
There's meat in the cupboard and butter in the churn,
Meat's in the cupboard and the butter's in the churn,
If that ain't groundhog, I'll be durned.
Oh, groundhog!
Gonna eat up the meat and save the hide
Eat up the meat and save the hide
The best damn shoestring that ever was tied
Oh, groundhog!
There's a little piece of cornbread a-layin' on the shelf,
Little piece of cornbread a-layin' on the shelf,
If you want any more, you can sing it yourself.
Oh, groundhog!
Oh, groundhog!
Oh, groundhog!
