Oh, rock by, my Saro Jane
Rock by my Saro Jane
Nothin' to do but sit around and sing
Rock by, my Saro Jane

Now, I?ve got a gal who?s sweet to me
She lives down in Tennessee, oh Saro Jane
Nothin' to do but sit around and sing
Rock by, my Saro Jane

Oh, rock by, my Saro Jane
Rock by, my Saro Jane
Nothin' to do but sit around and sing
Rock by, my Saro Jane

I've been around her all my life
All that?s left is just one wife, oh Saro Jane
Nothin' to do but sit around and sing
Rock by, my Saro Jane

Oh, rock by, my Saro Jane
Rock by, my Saro Jane
Nothin' to do but sit around and sing
Rock by, my Saro Jane

Now, you get a line and I?ll get a pole
And we?ll go down to the fishin? hole, oh Saro Jane
Nothin' to do but sit around and sing
Rock by, my Saro Jane
Oh, rock by my Saro Jane
Rock by, my Saro Jane
Nothin' to do but sit around and sing
Rock by, my Saro Jane
