You get a line and I'll get a pole

Now honey

You get a line and I'll get a pole

Babe

You get a line and I'll get a pole

Now let's go down to the crawdad hole

Honey baby mine

There come a man with a sack on his back

Now honey

There come a man with a sack on his back

Oh babe

There come a man with a sack on his back

He's got him all crawdads he can pack

Honey baby mine

Man fell down and he broke that sack

Honey

Man fell down and he broke that sack

Oh babe

Man fell down and he broke that sack

You might see them crawdads goin' back

Honey baby mine

What you gonna do when the pond goes dry

Now honey

What you gonna do when the pond goes dry

Oh babe

What you gonna do when the pond goes dry

I'm gonna sit on the bank

And watch the crawdads die

Honey baby mine

Sat on the pond 'til my feet got cold

Honey

Sat on the pond 'til my feet got cold

Babe

Sat on the pond 'til my feet got cold

I was lookin' right down that crawdads hole

Honey baby mine
