OLD DAN TUCKER Key G
G
1. Old Dan Tucker was a mighty man,
D7
He washed his face in a frying pan.
G
Combed his hair with a wagon wheel.
D7
And he died with a toothache in his heel. So
Chorus:
G C D7 G
Get out the way, old Dan Tucker. You’re too late to stay for supper.
G C D7 G
Supper’s over, breakfast’s cooking. Old Dan Tucker just stands there looking.
2. Old Dan Tucker he came to town,
riding a billy goat, leading a hound.
Hound dog barked, billy goat jumped,
Landed Dan Tucker on top of a stump. So
3. Old Dan Tucker he came to town,
swinging the ladies round and round.
First to the right and then to the left.
And then to the one that he loves best. So
4. Old Dan Tucker he got drunk.
Fell in the fire and kicked up a chunk.
Red hot coal got in his shoe,
and oh, my Lord, how the ashes flew. So
