Dad Gum Ya Hide, Boy
Dad gum your hide boy
Dad gum your dirty hide
Dad gum you dirty dog
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog

Dad gum your hide boy
Dad gum your dirty hide
Dad gum you dirty dog
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog

I took you in when you was beat
You was almost dead
I gave you some good food to eat
And a place to rest your head

I let you wear my brand new suit
Let you wear my new shoes
And when you asked me for my money
I never did refuse
Now look at you sittin' there laughin'

Dad gum your hide boy
Dad gum your dirty hide
Dad gum you dirty dog
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog
Dad gum your hide boy
Dad gum your dirty hide
Dad gum you dirty dog
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog

Then you met my baby
Who is the apple of my heart
I could tell from the way you looked at her
That trouble was bound to start

You started all your jivin'
And made her think the moon was green
You know, Daddy? I think you the most
You the most connivingest fella I ever seen
You hear?

Dad gum your hide boy
Dad gum your dirty hide
Dad gum you dirty dog
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog

Dad gum your hide boy
Dad gum your dirty hide
Dad gum you dirty dog
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog
I thought you was my buddy
I thought you was my pal
You duped me out of all my money
And then you try to steal my gal

But one of these days I'm gonna get even
And you heard what I said
But in the meantime, I hope you take another drink
And stand up and drop dead
You hear?

Dad gum your hide boy
Dad gum your dirty hide
Dad gum you dirty dog
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog
Stop that

Dad gum your hide boy
(Look at him, sittin' there, laughin')
Dad gum your dirty hide
(Hey lady, don't even talk to him, he ain't no good)
Dad gum you dirty dog
(And when a cat ain't no good, put him down)
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog

Dad gum your hide boy
(No)
Dad gum your dirty hide
(No)
Dad gum you dirty dog
(No)
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog
(No)
Dad gum your hide boy
(You came into my house)
Dad gum your dirty hide
(Ate up my spaghetti and meatballs)
Dad gum you dirty dog
(Wore my brand new suit, wore my shoes)
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog
(Beat me outta all my money and stole my woman)

Dad gum your hide boy
Dad gum your dirty hide
(Look at him, look at him sittin' there, gigglin')
Dad gum you dirty dog
(I oughta take a short stick)
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog
(You got what you comin')

Dad gum your hide boy
(Get on outta here, you hear?)
Dad gum your dirty hide
Dad gum you dirty dog
I gave you the pig and you wanted a hog
