Old Dan Tucker

(arr. by Bruce Springsteen, from the album "We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions")

4/26/06

CAPO III

INTRO: C F G7 C (2x)

C F

Now Old Dan Tucker was a fine old man

G7 C

Washed his face in a fryin' pan

F

Combed his hair with a wagon wheel

G7 C

And died with a toothache in his heel

CHORUS:

C F

Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker

G7 C

You're too late to get your supper

F

Get out the way, Old Dan Tucker

G7 C

You're too late to get your supper

INTRO

Now Old Dan Tucker come to town

Ridin' a billy goat, leadin' a hound

The hound goes bark, the billy goat jumped

And landed Old Tucker on a stump

CHORUS

INTRO

Now Old Dan Tucker got drunk and fell

In the fire and kicked up holy hell

A red-hot coal got in his shoe

And oh my Lord the ashes flew

CHORUS

INTRO

Now Old Dan Tucker come to town

Swingin' them ladies all around

First to the right and then to the left

Then to the gal that he loved the best

CHORUS (2x)

INTRO

CHORDS without capo:
