Can't get a bluebird, a jaybird'll do
Can't get a bluebird, a jaybird'll do

Skip to my Lou, my darlin'

Little red wagon painted blue
Little red wagon painted blue
Little red wagon painted blue
Skip to my Lou, my darlin'

Fly in a sugar bowl; shoo, fly, shoo
Fly in a sugar bowl; shoo, fly, shoo
Fly in a sugar bowl; shoo, fly, shoo
Skip to my Lou, my darlin'

My old shoe is torn in two
My old shoe is torn in two
My old shoe is torn in two
Skip to my Lou, my darlin'

Cows in the cornfield, two by two
