Текст Casey Abrams – Hi De Ho

Hi de ho, hi de hi
Gonna find me a piece of that sky
Gonna find me some of that old sweet roll
Singing, hi de, hi de, hi de, hi de ho

I’ve been down so long
That the bottom looked like up
Once I felt like second saves
Was enough to fill my cup

Now I offered all I have
But it ain’t no way to live
Being taken by the ones
Who have the least amount to give, oh yeah

Hi de ho, hi de hi
I’m gonna find me a piece of that sky
Gonna find me some of that old sweet roll
Singing, hi de, hi de, hi de, hi de ho

I wanna tell you
Once I met the devil, he was mighty slick
He tempted me with worldly goods
Said that I could have my pick

But when he laid the paper on me
And he showed me where to sign
I said, «Thank you very kindly, sir
But I’m too great a-need of mind»

Singing, singing hi de, hi de ho
Hi de, hi de, hi de oh
I gotta get me a piece of that big old sky
Gonna find me some of that old sweet roll
Hi de, hi de, hi de hi

Oh mama, why oh, why oh, why?

Oh yeah, baby

Gonna find me some of that old sweet roll
Singing, hi de, hi de, hi de hi
Hi de, hi de, hi de hi
Hi de, hi de, hi de, hi de ho, oh
