Blue-Eyed Girl

cho: Fly around, my blue-eyed gal
Fly around my daisy;
Fly around my blue-eyed gal
Dam' near drive me crazy. *

The higher up on the cherry tree
The riper grows the cherry
More you hug and kiss the gals
Sooner you will marry.

cho:

Blue-eyed gal won't marry me
Brown-eyed gal won't have me;
If I can't have the gal I want
Single I will tarry.

cho:

Eighteen horses in my team
Leader he is blind;
Everywhere I drive that team
Pretty gal on my mind.

cho:

Possum up in a 'simmon tree
Raccoon on the ground;
Possum up in a 'simmon tree
Shakin' 'simmons down.

*Methodists sang "Almost drives me crazy."
