You take some pot and pans
You take some pots and pans
You take some pots and pans
Hit 'em with some sticks
Hit 'em with some sticks
Just go on and hit 'em with a couple sticks

Now I got a mandolin
I got a mandolin
I got a mandolin
I love the way it rings
I love the way it rings
I just love the way it rings

Baby's got a tambourine
Baby's got a tambourine
Baby's got a tambourine
Shakes it in my face
Shakes it my face
She just shakes it in my face

I got some old brown shoes
Got some old brown shoes
I got some old brown shoes
I stomp 'em on the floor
I stomp 'em on the floor
I just stomp 'em on the floor

My boys got an old guitar
Boys got an old guitar
Boys got an old guitar
He loves to bend them strings
He loves to bend them strings
He just loves to bend them strings

I got an old French harp
I got an old French harp
I got an old French harp
It's in the key of C is the key of C
This song's in the key of G

I holler and she moans
I holler and she moans
I holler and my baby moans
It's a hellacious sound
It's a hellacious sound
It's just one hellacious sound

So you take some pots and pans
You take some pots and pans
You take some pot and pans
You hit 'em with some sticks
You hit 'em with some sticks
You just hit 'em with some sticks
