Uncle Eph’s Got The Coon Grandpa Jones

Hitch my horse up to my hack
Buckled my banjo to my back
The Buckle broke and the banjo flew
Devil got the buckle and the banjo too

Uncle Eph's got the coon and gone on
Gone on, gone on
Uncle Eph's got the coon and gone on
And left us lookin' up a tree

Wake up, sister, don't you sleep so late
Keep your eye on the golden gate
Get out and dance by the light of the moon
See Uncle Eph from fetching in the coon

Uncle Eph's got the coon and gone on
Gone on, gone on
Uncle Eph's got the coon and gone on
And left us lookin' up a tree

What kind of slippers does the angels wear
Slippin' and slidin' on the golden stairs?
Golden slippers and silver socks
Drop your nickel in the missionary box

Uncle Eph's got the coon and gone on
Gone on, gone on
Uncle Eph's got the coon and gone on
And left us lookin' up a tree
