[Verse 1]
Rabbit in a log, and I can't find my dog
How will I get him? I know
Get me a briar, and I'll twist it in his hair
That's how I'll get him, I know

[Chorus]
I know (I know), I know (Really, I know)
That's how I'll get him, I know
Get me a briar, and I'll twist it in his hair
That's how I'll get him, I know

[Verse 2]
Build me a fire, and I'll roast that old hare
Roll him in the flames nice and brown
Feast in the night while the moon shines so bright
But I got not place to lie down

[Chorus]
Lie down (To lie down), lie down (to lie down)
I got not place to lie down
Feast in the night while the moon shines so bright
But I got not place to lie down

[Verse 3]
Walkin' down the track with a chicken on my back
Soles of my shoes nearly gone (Yee, haw-haw)
Little ways ahead there's an old farmer's shed
That's where I'll rest my weary bones
[Chorus]
Weary bones (Weary bones), weary bones (lazy bones)
That's where I'll rest my weary bones
Little ways ahead there's an old farmer's shed
That's where I'll rest my weary bones

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Rabbit in a log, and I can't find my dog
How will I get him? I know
Get me a briar, and I'll twist it in his hair
That's how I'll get him, I know

[Chorus]
I know (I know), I know (really, I know)
That's how I'll get him, I know
Get me a briar, and I'll twist it in his hair
That's how I'll get him, I know
