Old Shoes and Leggings

Old man came courtin' me one day
But I'm never havin'
He come down the lane walkin' on his cane
With his darned old beard a-waggin'

Mama told me to open the door
No I won't have him
Opened the door and he fell on the floor
With his darned old beard a-waggin'

Mama told me to take his hat
Oh I won't ever have him
I took his hat and I threw it at the cat
His darned old beard a-waggin'

Mama told me to give him some cake
No I won't ever have him
Give him some cake and he ate like a snake
His darned old beard a-waggin'

Mama told me to put him to bed
No I ain't gonna have him
I put him to bed and he slept like he's dead
With his darned old beard a-waggin'
darned old beard a-waggin'

Mama told me to kiss him goodbye
Oh I won't have him
Kissed him goodbye and I thought I would die
With his darned old beard a-waggin'

I'm gonna get me a nice young man
Yes I'm gonna have him
A nice young man he can kiss me when he can
With no darned beard a waggin'
With no darned beard a-waggin'
