Lyrics

Cut me up some cornbread,
pass along the collard greens
I’m the loneliest banjo picker,
Baby, you done ever seen

I’m just walking,
Well, tonight I’m gonna cross a distant county line
All I need is a hound dog, Honey,
and that old fishing pole of mine

Fire up those fiddles,
Baby, bring those blue suede shoes
Going down, down to New Orleans,
do the alligator boogaloo

I’m just walking,
Well, tonight I’m gonna cross a Mason Dixon line
All I need is a hound dog, Honey,
and that old fishing pole of mine

Old fishing pole,
Take me away
Go on, rescue me right away

Going down to the crossroads,
whistle Dixie sweet and low
I don’t care if it’s Delta blues,
or Bourbon Street zydeco

Cause I’m just walking,
Well, tonight I’m gonna leave the lonely fear behind
All I need is a hound dog, Honey,
and that old fishing pole of mine

(Repeat)
