    Sourwood Mountain

     

    Chickens are crowin’ on Sourwood mountain,

    High-ho, high ho, diddle all the day.

    Get your dog and we’ll go huntin’

    High-ho, high ho, diddle all the day.

     

    I got a gal lives up the river,

    High-ho, high ho, diddle all the day.

    Hop and skip and I’ll be with her,

    High-ho, high ho, diddle all the day.

     

    My true loves a blue-eyed daisy,

    High-ho, high ho, diddle all the day.

    She won’t come and I’m too lazy,

    High-ho, high ho, diddle all the day.

     

    One of these days before too long,

    High-ho, high ho, diddle all the day.

    I’ll get that girl and a-home I’ll run,

    High-ho, high ho, diddle all the day.

     

    Chickens are crowin’ on Sourwood mountain,

    High-ho, high ho, diddle all the day.

    Get your dog and we’ll go huntin’

    High-ho, high ho, diddle all the day.

     

    This is a traditional Southern mountain dance song.
