this has the same tune as the Irish songs 'The Old Orange Flute' & 'Moses Too Rye Aye'. this tune sounds great no matter what lyrics are put to it! That's why I love folk music & how folk songs change from generation to generation :)
@SirOver9Thousand Not only "The Old Orange Flute" and "Mr. Moses Ri-Tooral-I-Ay," but it's also the tune for "Master McGraw." The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem at various times sang all three of these songs if anyone wants to compare them all (Paddy Clancy did McGraw and Moses and Makem did Flute).
my class has to do this song, and yay, I get to be the oxen with someone half my side that can only carry one fourth of the wait, he can't even fit in the costume!
A TIMELESS CLASSIC!

out on the prairie one starry night
they broke out the whiskey and Betsy got tight
she jumped and she shouted she danced o'er the plain
and she showed her bare arse to the whole wagon train

Did you ever hear tell of Casey Anthony?
She snuffed out her kid and then got off scot-free.
Got a tattoo, then went wild as a whore.
That baby named Caylee ain't hers anymore.
They know Casey lied and so does her defense.
But why tell the lies and proclaim innocence?
She fooled the courts but she'll never fool God.
And she better start carryin' a big lightnin' rod.

Casey fooled the police and she lied to the law.
Her jury was blind to what everyone saw.
O. J. got off and M. J. did as well.
Just one more celebrity burnin' in Hell.
Sweet Caylee belongs to King Jesus above
and she will be happy and filled with His love.
She'll grow with her Lord till she's thirty and three,
through green days in forest and blue days at sea.

Never heard this before with lyrics but I have the instrumental version off of a Cracker Barrel CD I bought. One of the best CDs in my collection.
