Sweet sixteen goes to church
Just to see the boys
Laughs and screams and giggles
At every little noise
Turns her face a little
And turns her head awhile
But everybody knows she's
Only putting on the style

It ain' no mo' cane on de Brazis,
Mmm…
Done groun' it all in molazzis.
Mmm…

Better git yo' overcoat ready,
Well, it's comin' up a norther.

Well, the Cumberland gap, Cumberland gap
Fifteen miles on the Cumberland gap
The Cumberland gap, Cumberland gap
Fifteen miles on the Cumberland gap
Well, the Cumberland gap ain't nowhere
Fifteen miles from Middlesborough
Cumberland gap ain't nowhere
Fifteen miles from Middlesborough

Oh-me, oh-my, oh-you
Whatever shall I do
Hallelujah, the question is peculiar
I'd give a lot of dough
If only I could know
The answer to my question
Is it yes or is it no

I've gambled down in Washington
And I've gambled up in Maine
I'm going down into Georgia
To knock down my last game
I'm a gamblin' man man man
I'm a gamblin' man

Well I'd not been in Washington

I kissed a girl in Burma, in a town they called Rangoon
Her lips were hot as curry in the heat of the afternoon
Her kisses were so spicy I thought my lips would fry
But I never knew what kissing was till I kissed Lorelei
Loerelei, Lorelei, Lorelei.

I kissed a girl in Africa, I only had a hope (?)
And every time I kissed her my ears would turn to soap

Spoken: Now here's a little story
To tell it is a must
About an unsung hero
That moves away the dust
Some people make a fortune
Others earn a mint
My old man dont earn much
In fact he's flippin skint

NOBODY LOVES LIKE AN IRISHMAN
(Jim Currie / Lonnie Donegan)

Now, this here's the story about the Rock Island line
Now, the Rock Island line is a railroad line
And it runs down into New Orleasn
And just outside of New Orleans is a big toll gate
And all the trains that go through the toll gate
Why, they gotta pay the man some money
Less of course, they got certain things on board
Then they okay, then they don't ever have to pay the man nothin'
