Ground Hog
Appalachian Ballad,
Written by: Unknown, Copyright: Unknown
Whet up your knife and whistle up your dog,
Whet up your knife and whistle up your dog,
We're going to the hollow to catch a ground hog.
Ground hog!
Too many rocks and too many logs,
Too many rocks and too many logs,
Too many rocks to catch ground hogs,
Ground hog!
Here he comes all in a whirl,
Here he comes all in a whirl,
He's the biggest ground hog in the world.
Ground hog!
The children screamed and the children cried,
The children screamed and the children cried,
They love ground hog cooked and fried.
Ground hog!
Whet up your knife and whistle up your dog,
We're going to the hollow to catch a ground hog.
Ground hog!
Too many rocks and too many logs,
Too many rocks and too many logs,
Too many rocks to catch ground hogs,
Ground hog!
Here he comes all in a whirl,
Here he comes all in a whirl,
He's the biggest ground hog in the world.
Ground hog!
The children screamed and the children cried,
The children screamed and the children cried,
They love ground hog cooked and fried.
Ground hog!
