An' them An' them dogs come out from the house barkin'

Give everything a sportin'
Whatever you do, give it a sportin'
An' dogs An' them An' them dogs out from under the house barkin'

When you free a coon, hold the dogs and cut the tree down, or climb the tree and make the coon jump in amongst the dogs.
