Dance Me A Jig Lyrics

Get along there Jeff Davis, get along there General lee

I'm going up to the Freedom Land,
Got me two pigs, got 'em here in my hand;
The Bible says it's wrong to steal and tell lies So I asked mighty Lord to close all his eyes.

While I dance me a jig and I dance me a jog, 'Cause I got me a pig and I got me a hog.Ain't no one gonna. take 'em from me.
Get along there Jeff Davis Get along there General Lee!

I didn't want no posses chasing after me, So I took all the livestock and set 'em free,
( Now master 's so mad that he's liable to bust,'Cause he gotta catch 'em all while I'm kicking up dust.
While I dance me a jig and I dance me a jog,'Cause I got me a pig Lord and I got me a hog.
Ain't no one gonna. take 'em from me.
Get along there Jeff Davis Get along there General Lee!

If you pigs are wondering how you got your names,
Well, you and them two rascals are just the same,
And if you don't stop acting like your two namesakes,
I'll have roast pork in the morning and tasty ham steaks.

While I dance me a jig and I dance me a jog,'Cause I got me a pig and I got me a hog.
Ain't no one gonna. take 'em from me.

Get along there Jeff Davis Get along there fool!

I am an old woman, but I'd like to bet,
That I'm one woman old master won't forget, The look on his face will be something to see,
When he finds the pigs are gone -- and I am free!

I'm going up to the Freedom Land,
Got me two pigs, got 'em here in my hand;
The Bible says it's wrong to steal and tell lies So I asked mighty Lord to close all his eyes.

While I dance me a jig and I dance me a jog,
'Cause I got me a pig lord and I got me a hog.
Ain't no one gonna. take 'em from me.
Ain't no one gonna take'em from me
get along there)Jeff Davisl Get along there General Lee!
