Jubilee

from Growing Old In Public by June Star

subscriber exclusive

lyrics

It's all out on the old railroad,
It's all out on the sea,
All out on the old railroad,
Far as I can see.

chorus:
Swing and turn, Jubilee,
Live and learn, Jubilee.
Swing and turn, Jubilee,
Live and learn, Jubilee.

Hardest work I ever done,
Workin' on the farm,
Easiest work I ever done,
Swingin' my true love's arm.

If I had a needle and thread,
As fine as I could sew,
I'd sew my true love to my side
And down this creek I'd go.

If I had no horse to ride,
I'd be found a-callin'
Up and down this rocky road
Lookin' for my darlin'.

Some will come on a Sat'day night,
Some will come on Sunday;
If you give 'em half a chance
They'll be back on Monday.

I won't have no other girl
Neither will my cousin,
You can get such stuff as that
For fifteen cents a dozen.

Coffee grows on a white oak tree,
Sugar runs in brandy,
Girls are bright as a lump of gold,
And twice as sweet as candy.
