My Good Old Man

My Good Old Man

(album: Ballads And Folk Songs, Volume 2 - 1946)

Where are you going, my good, old man?
Where are you going, my honey, my lamb?
Hunting

When are you be back, my good, old man?
When are you be back, my honey, my lamb?
Saturday

What'll you want for supper, my good, old man?
What'll you want for your supper, my honey, my lamb?
Eggs

How many of 'em do you want, my good, old man?
How many of 'em do you want, my honey, my lamb?
A bushel

Why, a bushel of 'em will kill ya, my good, old man
A bushel of 'em will kill ya, my honey, my lamb
I don't mind

Where do you want to be buried, my good, old man?
Where do you want to be buried, my honey, my lamb?
In the chimney corner

Why, the ashes will fall on ya, my good, old man
The ashes will fall on ya, my honey, my lamb
I don't care if they do

What'll you do then, my good, old man?
What'll you do then, my honey, my lamb?
I'm gonna haunt ya

A ghost can't haunt a ghost, my good, old man
A ghost can't haunt a ghost, my honey, my lamb
