Raccoon up the 'simmon tree
'Possum up the gum
Never did see a pretty girl
But what I love her some

Bile them cabbage down, boys
Bake those hot cakes brown, boys
The only song that I can sing
Is bile them cabbage down

Raccoon up the 'simmon tree
'Possum on the ground
'Possum said to the 'coon
Shake some 'simmons down
