Skin man's hollerin', passin' right by my door
Well, the skin' man's hollerin', passin' right by my door
Well, he's hollerin' "Skin!", everywhere he goes

Some bags are a nickel, son, some bags a dime
Some bags are a nickel, son, some bags a dime
Some bags are sellin' to that teasing brown of mine

Well, it's skins, oh skins, skins, skins, skins, skins
Well, it's skins, it's skins, skins, skins, skins
I'm goin' away, oh skins, but I'm comin' back again

Yond' skin man, hangs by your door
You oughta stop those skin men from passing by your door
And they holler, "Skin!", everywhere they go

Let me tell you, what the skin mens will do
Oh, let me tell you, what the skin mens will do
Well, they sell your wife skins and take her away from you
