Hi de ho
Hi de hi
I'm gonna get me a
piece of the sky
I'm gonna get me some
of that old sweet roll
I'm singin'
hi de hi de hi de hi de
hooooo
I've been down so low
Bottom looked like up
Once I thought
that seconds saves
was enough
to fill my cup
Now I offered
all I got
and that ain't
no way to live
Being taken by the ones
who've got the least
amount to give
Hi de ho
Hi de hi
I'm gonna get me a
piece of the sky
I'm gonna get me some
of that old sweet roll
I'm singin'
hi de hi de hi de hi de
hooooo
Once I met the devil
He was mighty slick
Tempted me with
worldly goods said
you can have your pick
But when he laid
that paper on me
and he showed me
where to sign
I said thank you
very kindly but I'm in
too big a need of mine
Hi de ho
Hi de hi
I'm gonna get me a
piece of the sky
Lord knows
I'm gonna get me some
of that old sweet roll
singin'
hi de hi de hi de hi de
hooooooooooo
Hi de hi
I'm gonna get me a
piece of the sky
I'm gonna get me some
of that old sweet roll
singin'
hi de hi de hi de hi de
hoooo
Singin'
hi de ho
hi de hi
I'm gonna get me a
piece of the sky
I'm gonna get me some
of that old sweet roll...
singin'
hi de hi de hi de hi de
hoooooooo
