Well, I had a piece of pie,
And I had a piece of pudding,
And I give it all away
To see Sally Goodin.

I looked up the road
And I seen a man a-coming,
And I swore to my soul
That I’d kill myself a-running.

I love pie
And I love pudding,
And I love that gal
That they call Sally Goodin.

Huckleberry pie,
Huckleberry pudding,
And I give it all way
To get Sally Goodin.

Looked up the road
And I saw her man a-coming,
And I swore to my soul
That I’d kill myself a-running.
