Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key

Lyrics

I lived in a place called okfuskee
 And I had a little girl in a holler tree
 I said, little girl, its plain to see,
 Aint nobody that can sing like me
 Aint nobody that can sing like me
 She said its hard for me to see
 How one little boy got so ugly
 Yes, my little girly, that might be,
 But there aint nobody that can sing like me
 Aint nobody that can sing like me
 Way over yonder in the minor key
 Way over yonder in the minor key
 There aint nobody that can sing like me
 We walked down by the buckeye creek
 To see the frog eat the goggle eye bee
 To hear that west wind whistle to the east,
 There aint nobody that can sing like me
 Aint nobody that can sing like me
 Oh my little girly will you let me see,
 Where over yonder where the wind blows free
 Nobody can see in our holler tree
 And there aint nobody that can sing like me
 Aint nobody that can sing like me
 Way over yonder in the minor key
 Way over yonder in the minor key
 There aint nobody that can sing like me
 ♪
 Her mama cut a switch from a cherry tree
 And laid it on to she and me
 It stung lots worse than a hive of bees
 But there aint nobody that can sing like me
 Aint nobody that can sing like me
 Now I have walked a long long ways
 And I still look back to my tanglewood days,
 I've led lots of girlies since then to stray
 Saying, aint nobody that can sing like me
 Aint nobody that can sing like me
 Way over yonder in the minor key
 Way over yonder in the minor key
 There aint nobody that can sing like me
 Way over yonder in the minor key
 Way over yonder in the minor key
 There aint nobody that can sing like me
 Aint nobody that can sing like me
