And listen to this
I am a hermit of burial ridge
Once I was shaven and worked every day
But the call of the wild just lured me away
Singing hi hi ho it's a water a day
On my way to an unmarked grave
Hi hi ho it's a water a day
On my way to an unmarked grave
There's pals at my table and mud on the floor
There's bears in the area and wolves at the door
Their singing a song about cookie mcbride
Who goes out a-trapping and then tails their hide
Hi hi hey it's a water a day
On my way to an unhappy grave
Hi hi hey it's a water a day
On my way to a rain filled grave
So if you're planning a natural trip
Don't call up snooping on burial ridge
The searchers will come and discover your hide
High, wet and hanging like cookie mcbride
Hi hi hey it's a water a day
On your way to an unhappy grave
Hi hi hey it's a water a day
Who will remember the money you saved?
I'm in over your head
You're in over your head
Well gather round people And listen to this I am a hermit of burial ridge Once I was shaven and worked every day But the call of the wild just lured me away Singing hi hi ho it's a water a day On my way to an unmarked grave Hi hi ho it's a water a day On my way to an unmarked grave There's pals at my table and mud on the floor There's bears in the area and wolves at the door Their singing a song about cookie mcbride Who goes out a-trapping and then tails their hide Hi hi hey it's a water a day On my way to an unhappy grave Hi hi hey it's a water a day On my way to a rain filled grave So if you're planning a natural trip Don't call up snooping on burial ridge The searchers will come and discover your hide High, wet and hanging like cookie mcbride Hi hi hey it's a water a day On your way to an unhappy grave Hi hi hey it's a water a day Who will remember the money you saved? I'm in over your head You're in over your head Explain Request ×
