Now if you will listen, I'll sing you a song
It's awful funny but it won't last long
All about a crow in a hickory tree
One little story that a crow told me

REFRAIN: Caw, caw, One little story that a crow told me
Caw, caw, in a hickory tree

My gal taken sick, well, the other day
The doctor said she's gonna pass away
I got her a corset at the dry goods store
She's better shape now than she was before

REFRAIN: Caw, caw, One little story that a crow told me
Caw, caw, in a hickory tree

I bought myself a suit of union underwear
To keep me from the cold and chilly air
I wore it six months without a change of ration
And I couldn't get it off 'cause I lost the combination

REFRAIN: Caw, caw, One little story that a crow told me
Caw, caw, in a hickory tree

I had a cow that I dressed in silk
She fell down and sprained her milk
My wife went to milk, for she thought it was a cinch
To milk that cow with a monkey wrench

REFRAIN: Caw, caw, One little story that a crow told me
Caw, caw, in a hickory tree

On a cold winter night, well, I thought I'd breeze
The old white cow, she froze her knee
Sneezed so hard that she caught the croup
Her tail got stiff and she couldn't stoop

REFRAIN: Caw, caw, One little story that a crow told me
Caw, caw, in a hickory tree

Throw back and hook, and give back a line
The fish won't bite in the wintertime
Stood on the ice 'til my feet got cold
Watching the crawfish dig him a hole

REFRAIN: Caw, caw, One little story that a crow told me
Caw, caw, in a hickory tree
