1. I got a barrel of flour, Lord,
I got a bucket of lard.
I got a barrel of flour, Lord,
I got a bucket of lard.
Ain't got no blues, got chickens in my back yard.
2. Got corn in my crib,
Got cotton in my patch.
I got the old hen settin',
Waitin' for the old hen to hatch.
3. I'm gonna build me a shanty,
Lord, I'm gonna settle down.
Get me a cornfed mama, Lord,
And stop runnin' around.
4. I can make more money
With my pick and plow.
With my one-eyed mule
And my good old Jersey cow.
