Gee, I'm always hungry, can't get enough to eat Gee, I'm hungry, can't get enough to eat I'm just like a savage, I could eat a barrel of meat Set down to the table, ate up everything I could found Set down to the table, ate up everything I found Would have ate the dishes if someone hadn't been around Pot of ham and cabbage, ain't enough to fill mine Pot of ham and cabbage, ain't enough to fill mine That just makes me peckish, I could eat a dozen fine Saw my family doctor, said I had a big tapeworm I saw my family doctor, said I had a big tapeworm
Said I had ate a cow, made me good and firm Went to the country, broke into a chicken coop I went to the country, broke into a chicken coop Stole a dozen chickens, put 'em in a pot of soup I'm a greedy glutton, eat fifty times a day I'm a greedy glutton, eat fifty times a day When I'm around a pigpen, they hide the slop away Guess me and my tapeworm must go further down the road Guess me and my tapeworm must go further down the road 'Cause we eat so much, won't nobody give us no board
