She said it's hard for me to
see
how one little boy got so
ugly
Yes, my little girly, that
might be,
But there ain't nobody that
can sing like me
Ain't nobody that can sing
like me
way over yonder in the minor
key
Way over yonder in the minor
key
there ain't nobody that can
sing like me
We walked down by the Buckeye
Creek
to see he frog eat the goggle
eye
bee
To hear that west wind whistle
to the east,
there ain't nobody that can
sing like me
Oh my little girly will you
let me see,
where over yonder where the
wind blows free
Nobody can see in our holler
tree
and there ain't nobody that
can sing like me
Her mama cut a switch from
a cherry tree
and laid it on the she and
me
It stung lots worse than a
hive of bees
but there ain't nobody that
can sing like me
Now I have walked a long long
ways
and I still look back to my
tanglewood days,
I've led lots of girlies since
then to stray
saying, ain't nobody that
can sing like me
