Hog Eye Man

Traditional

[Verse 1]
Oh, hand me down my riding cane
I'm off to meet my darlin' Jane

[Chorus]
With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eye man

[Verse 2]
Oh, the hog-eye man is the man for me
He was born and raised in Tennessee

[Chorus]
With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eye man

[Verse 3]
Oh, he came to thе shack where Sally did dwell
Hе knocked on the door and he rung the bell

[Chorus]
With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eye man

[Verse 4]
Oh, who's been here since I been gone?
A railroad navvy with his sea boots on

[Chorus]
With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eye man

[Instrumental]

[Verse 5]
Oh, Sally's in the garden sifting sand
The hog-eye man sittin' hand in hand

[Chorus]
With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eye man

[Verse 6]
Oh, Sally's in the garden shelling peas
Her long yellow hair hangin' down to her knees

[Chorus]
With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eye man

[Verse 7]
Oh, I won't bear a hog-eye, damned if I do
Got jiggers in his feet and he can't wear shoes

[Chorus]
With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eye man

[Verse 8]
Oh, a hog-eye ship and a hog-eye crew
A hog-eye mate and a skipper too

[Chorus]
With a hog-eye, oh
Row the boat ashore with a hog-eye
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eye man

[Outro]
Steady on the jig with a hog-eye, oh
She wants the hog-eye man
