Hot Corn, Cold Corn

(album: Not For Kids Only - 1993)

Upstairs, downstairs, out in the kitchen
Upstairs, downstairs, out in the kitchen
Upstairs, downstairs, out in the kitchen
I met an old cook just a reeling and a pitching
Yes sir

Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Fair thee well, uncle Bill, see you in the morning
Yes sir

Old aunt Sally, won't you fill'em up again
Old aunt Sally, won't you fill'em up again
Old aunt Sally, won't you fill'em up again
I ain't had a drink since the lord knows when
Yes sir

Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Fair thee well, uncle Bill, see you in the morning
Yes sir

All I need to keep me happy
Is two little boys to call me pappy
One named Paul and one named Davy
One likes ham and the other loves gravy
Yes sir

Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Fair thee well, uncle Bill, see you in the morning
Yes sir

Preacher's in the pulpit taking in the money
Children in the bee hive taking in the honey
Old aunt Sally just a jumping for joy
Happiest lot of people that ever I saw
Yes sir

Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Fair thee well, uncle Bill, see you in the morning
Yes sir

Preacher's all a coming and the children are a crying
Preacher's all a coming and the children are a crying
Preacher's all a coming and the children are a crying
Chicken heads a-wringing and a toenails flying
Yes sir

Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Hot corn, cold corn, bring along the demijohn
Fair thee well, uncle Bill, see you in the morning
Yes sir
