It's all out on the old railroad

All out on the sea

All out on the old railroad

Far as I can see

Swing and turn, jubilee

Live and learn, jubilee

Hardest work I ever done

Workin' on a farm

Easiest work I ever done

Swingin' my true love's arm

Swing and turn, jubilee

Live and learn, jubilee

If I had a new needle and thread

Fine as I could sew

I'd sew my true love to my side

Down this creek I'd go

Swing and turn, jubilee

Live and learn, jubilee

If I had no horse to ride,

I'd be found a-crawlin'

Up and down this rocky road

Lookin' for my darlin'

Swing and turn, jubilee

Live and learn, jubilee

Some will come on Saturday night,

Some will come on Sunday;

If you give 'em half a chance

They'll be back on Monday

Swing and turn, jubilee

Live and learn, jubilee

I won't have no widder man

Neither will my cousin,

You can get such stuff as that

For fifteen cents a dozen

Swing and turn, jubilee

Live and learn, jubilee
