When Sam take all your men And to war I'm be just like a coon Uncle Sam take all your men And to war Boys, I'm 'onna be just a coon Ev'ry mornin' the moon go down I won't start 'fore around I roam
Uncle Sam leave me I got to watch pretty women While the men is gone Uncle Sam me alone I got to these pretty women While the men is gone Now, it's one I will do, Uncle Sam write you when one of these women Treat me
I don't want a-these women to fuss an fightin' over me 'Cause, you know Sam Believe Bukka behind you women start to fussin' And over me 'Cause Uncle Sam goin' behind If I get around to the women In the Old Bukka be 'round 'fore the sun go down
