There's a rabbit in the log and I ain't got my dog How will I get him I know I'll get me a briar and twist it in his hair That way I'll get him I know
I know ( yes I know ) I know ( I surely know ) That's how I'll get him I know I'll get me a briar and twist in his hair That way I'll get him I know
I'll build me a fire and I'll cook that old hare Roll him in the flames and make him brown Have a feast here tonight while the moon is shining bright And find me a place to lie down
To lie down ( to lie down ) To lay down ( to lay down ) Find me a place to lie down Have a feast here tonight while the moon is shining bright And find me a place to lie down
I'm going down the track and my coat ripped up my back Soles on my shoes are nearly gone A little ways ahead there's an old farmer's shed That's where I'll rest my weary bones
Weary bones ( weary bones ) Lazy bones ( lazy bones ) That's where I'll rest my weary bones A little way's ahead there's an old farmer's shed That's where I'll rest my weary bones.
