SEE THE LOUSE CHASE A MOUSE Sung by: Orville McInturff Recorded in Marshall, AR 8/6/62 Click here to listen to the original recording Hooey-flooey, hooey-flooey. See the louse chase a mouse, Hurraw, my John (?). See the louse chase a mouse From the kitchen to the house. We'll all get drunk tonight But good old sober Joe. See the hen chase a mink, Hooey-flooey, hooey-flooey. See the hen chase a mink, Hurraw, my John. See the hen chase a mink To the spring to get a drink. We'll all get drunk tonight But good old sober Joe. See the flea skin the tree, Hooey-flooey, hooey-flooey. See the flea skin the tree, Hurraw, my John. See the flea skin the tree In the middle of the sea. We'll all get drunk tonight But good old sober Joe. |
