Chorus

My uncle used to love but she died

 A chicken ain't chicken 'til it's licken good and fried

Keep on the sunny side

 My uncle used to love me but she died

Who'll bid me quarter, thirty cents for a ring of keys

three sixty-five for a dollar bill of groceries

 I'll have me a car of my own someday but 'til then I need a ride

 my uncle used to love me but she died

Chorus

Hamburger cup of coffee lettuce and tomato

 two times a dime to see a man kiss the alligater

one more time around free on the ferris wheel ride

 my uncle used to love me but she died

Chorus

Apples are for eatin and snakes are for hissin

 I've heard about a'huggin and I've heard about kissin

 I read about it free in a fifty cent illustrated guide

 My uncle used to love me but she died
