Lyrics
I got a pig at home in a pen corn to feed him on
All I need is a pretty little girl to feed him when I'm gone
Goin' on the mountain to sow a little cane
Raise a barrel of Sorghum sweet lil' Liza Jane
Black cloud's a-risin' surest sign of rain
Get the old grey bonnet on Little Liza Jane
Yonder comes that gal of mine how you think I know
Can tell by that Gingham gown hangin' down so low
Bake them biscuits baby bake 'em good n' brown
When you get them biscuits baked we're Alabamy bound
When she sees me comin' she wrings her hands and cries
Yonder comes the sweetest boy that ever lived or died
Now when she sees me leavin'she wrings her hands and cries
Yonder goes the meanest boy that ever lived or diedDemo Videos

About This Song
Pig in a Pen is a Bill Monroe classic that became popular in folk and jam band circles when Jerry Garcia recorded it with Old & In The Way in 1973. Monroe's original 1969 version is uptempo and driving, while Garcia's take is slower and more laid-back - you might hear either approach at a jam.
