Sourwood Mountain
Children's Folk Song Lyrics and Sound Clip
Kentucky Folksong
Chicken crowing on Sourwood Mountain
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
So many pretty girls, I can’t count ‘em
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
My true love, she lives in Letcher
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
She won’t come, and I won’t fetch her
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
My true love’s a blue eyed daisy
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
If I don’t get her, I’ll go crazy
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
Big dog bark, and little one bite you
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
Big girl’ll court, and little one’ll slight you
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
My true love lives up the river
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
A few more jumps and I’ll be with her
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
My true love lives in the hollow
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
She won’t come, and I won’t follow
Hey de-ing dang diddle al-ly day
