Hi-De-Ho

Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi

Gonna get me a piece of the sky

Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

I'm singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho

I've been down so low

Bottom looked like up

Once I thought that seconds 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

I'm gonna get me a piece of the sky

Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

I'm singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho

Once I met the Devil

He was mighty slick

Tempted me with worldly goods, said, "You can have your pick"

But when he laid that paper on me

And he showed me where to sign

I said, "Thank you very kindly, but I'm in too good a mood of mind"

Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi

I'm gonna get me a piece of the sky, Lord knows

I'm gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

I'm singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho

(Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi) Oh, get it children

(Gonna get me a piece of the sky)

Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

I'm singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho

Lead on, children (Singing)

(Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi)

(Gonna get me a piece of the sky)

Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

Singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho
