Songtext von Hi-De-Ho (That Old Sweet Roll)

Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi Gonna get me a piece of the sky Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll A-singin' Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho I've been down so long Bottom looked like up Once I thought that second saves Was enough to fill my cup Now I offered all I got And that ain't no way to live Bein' taken by the ones who got the least amount to give Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi Gonna get me a piece of the sky Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll A-singin' Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho Once I met the devil, he was mightly slick Tempted me with worldly goods And said, you could have your pick But when he laid the paper on me And he showed me where to sign I said, Thank you very kindly But I'm in too great a need of mind Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi Gonna get me a piece of the sky Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll A-singin' Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho
