Walking Cane Lyrics
[00:14.70] Our Father which art in heaven
[00:20.43] Hallowed be Thy name
[00:24.84] Thy kingdom come
[00:25.96] Give me a drink of that rum
[00:27.09] And I'll hold Jack and the gang
[00:29.18] Hand me down
[00:32.42]
[00:40.70] I went to kiss my gal the other night
[00:46.39] I went to kiss her sneaking
[00:50.46] I missed her mouth and tore her nose
[00:52.94] And that great darn thing was leaking
[00:54.99] Hand me down
[00:57.71]
[01:06.79] If you want to get to heaven
[01:07.83] Let me tell you what to do
[01:11.01] Just grease your foot with a little mud and heel
[01:15.16] The devil will get at you with his greasy hands
[01:17.80] You can trip right over into the promised land
[01:19.87] Hand me down
[01:22.63]
[01:30.69] I carried my wife to a barber shop
[01:34.84] Had her mouth cut small
[01:37.50] First she closed her eyes and opened wide
[01:41.61] She swallowed the shop and all
[01:43.29] Hand me down
[01:46.25]
[01:54.41] I'm too little and I'm black as tar
[01:57.92] I'm stealing away to heaven on an electric car
[02:01.80] That car wheel slipped back down the hill
[02:04.83] Take it going to heaven with a jack and wheel
[02:06.95] Hand me down
[02:09.71]
[02:23.50] Woo! Oh yeah
[02:27.62] Yeah
[02:35.13]
[00:20.43] Hallowed be Thy name
[00:24.84] Thy kingdom come
[00:25.96] Give me a drink of that rum
[00:27.09] And I'll hold Jack and the gang
[00:29.18] Hand me down
[00:32.42]
[00:40.70] I went to kiss my gal the other night
[00:46.39] I went to kiss her sneaking
[00:50.46] I missed her mouth and tore her nose
[00:52.94] And that great darn thing was leaking
[00:54.99] Hand me down
[00:57.71]
[01:06.79] If you want to get to heaven
[01:07.83] Let me tell you what to do
[01:11.01] Just grease your foot with a little mud and heel
[01:15.16] The devil will get at you with his greasy hands
[01:17.80] You can trip right over into the promised land
[01:19.87] Hand me down
