Salty Dog Rag - Eddie Hill/Curtis Kirk/Laura Lee
Away down yonder in the state of arkansas tower
Where my great grandpa met my great grandma
They drink apple cider and they get on a jag
They dance all night to the salty dog rag
They play an old fiddle like you never heard before
They play the only tune that they ever did know
It's a ragtime ditty and the rhythm don't drag
Yes way you dance to the salty dog rag
One foot front drag it back
Then you start to ball the jack
You shake and you break and then you sag
If your partner zigs you're supposed to zag
Your heart is light you tap your feet
In the rhythm with that ragtime beat
Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And dance all night to the salty dog rag
Away down south neath the old southern moon
The possum's up a tree and the hound a coons
Hitch up the buggy to a broken down nag
And go out dancing to the salty dog rag
They tune up the fiddle and they rosing up the bow
They strike a c chord on the old banjo
And holler hang on 'cause we ain't gonna drag
Yes way you dance to the salty dog rag
One foot front drag it back
Then you start to ball the jack
You shake and you break and then you sag
If your partner zigs you're supposed to zag
Your heart is light you tap your feet
In rhythm with that ragtime beat
Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And dance all night to the salty dog rag
One foot front drag it back
Then you start to ball the jack
You shake and you break and then you sag
If your partner zigs you're supposed to zag
Your heart is light and you tap your feet
In rhythm with that ragtime beat
Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And dance all night to the salty dog rag
