Hot Corn, Cold Corn Songtext
von David Grisman

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 reelin′ and a pitchin'
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, I′ll 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, I′ll 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, I'll see you in the morning
Yes sir

Preacher′s in the pulpit takin' in the money
Children in the beehive takin' in the honey
Old Aunt Sally just a jumpin′ for joy
Happiest lot of people that ever I saw it
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, I′ll see you in the morning
Yes sir

Preacher's all a comin′ and the children are a cryin'
Preacher′s all a comin' and the children are a cryin′
Preacher's all a comin' and the children are a cryin′
Chicken heads a-wringin′ and a toenails flyin'
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, I′ll see you in the morning
Yes sir
