Lyrics[]
English[]
Now old Dan Tucker was a fine old man
Washed his face in a frying pan
Combed his hair with a wagon wheel
Died with a toothache in his heel
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Old Dan Tucker, he's come to town
Riding a billy goat, leading a hound
Hound dog barked and the billy goat jumped
Landed Dan Tucker on top of the stump
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Now old Dan Tucker sat on a trunk
And fell in the fire and kicked up a chunk
Red-hot coal fall down in his shoe
Oh my Lord, how the ashes flew
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Now old Dan Tucker has come to town
Swinging the ladies round and round
First to the right and then to the left
Then to the girl that he loves best
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Get out of the way, old Dan Tucker
You're too late to get your supper
Spanish (LatAm)[]
El viejo Dan Tucker es un buen vaquero que se lava la cara en su sombrero
Peina su pelo con una rueda, le duele el pie y también la muela
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
El viejo Dan Tucker llegó a París, con una cabra y un perro grís
Se asustó su gran corcel, y Dan Tucker se dio golpe cruel
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
El viejo Dan Tucker, hoy se sentó, y sobre el fuego se cayó
Se quemó con un carbón, y se acabó la diversión.
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
El viejo Dan Tucker fue a bailar, quiso, a las chicas, conquistar
Con todas ellas, el bailó, hasta que se enamoró
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
Pórtate bien, Old Dan Tucker, y a cenar no llegues tarde
