As I was a-goin' down the road 
With a tired team and a heavy load, 
I cracked my whip and the leader sprung. 
I says day-day to the wagon tongue. 

Turkey in the straw. 
Turkey in the Straw, 
Roll 'em up and twist 'em up a 
     high tuck a-haw, 
And hit 'em up a tune called 
Turkey in the Straw. 

Went out to milk and I didn't know how. 
I milked the goat instead of the cow. 
A monkey sittin' on a pile of straw 
A-winkin' up at his mother-in-law.

Turkey in the straw. 
Turkey in the Straw, 
Roll 'em up and twist 'em up a 
     high tuck a-haw, 
And hit 'em up a tune called 
Turkey in the Straw. 

Turkey in the straw. 
Turkey in the Straw, 
Roll 'em up and twist 'em up a 
     high tuck a-haw, 
And hit 'em up a tune called 
Turkey in the Straw. 

I came to the river and I couldn't get across,
So I paid five dollars for a big bay hoss.
Well, he couldn't go ahead and he wouldn't stand still,
So he went up and down like an old saw mill.

Turkey in the straw. 
Turkey in the Straw, 
Roll 'em up and twist 'em up a 
     high tuck a-haw, 
And hit 'em up a tune called 
Turkey in the Straw. 

Did you ever go fishin' on a warm summer day
When all the fish were swimmin' in the bay
With their hands in their pockets and 
     their pockets in their pants?
Did you ever see a fishie do the hootchykootchy dance?

Turkey in the straw. 
Turkey in the Straw, 
Roll 'em up and twist 'em up a 
     high tuck a-haw, 
And hit 'em up a tune called 
Turkey in the Straw
