Well this old man, he played one
He played knick-knack on my thumb
Knick knack, paddiwack, give a dog a bone
This old man came rollin' home

Well this old man, he played two
He played knick-knack on my shoe
Knick knack, paddiwack, give a dog a bone
This old man came rollin' home

Well this old man, he played four
He played knick-knack on my door
Knick knack, paddiwack, give a dog a bone
This old man came rollin' home

Well this old man, he played five
He played knick-knack on my jive
Knick knack, paddiwack, give a dog a bone
This old man came rollin' home

Well this old man, he played six
He played knick-knack on my sticks
Knick knack, paddiwack, give a dog a bone
This old man came rollin' home

Well this old man, he played seven
He played knick-knack up to heaven
Knick knack, paddiwack, give a dog a bone
This old man came rollin' home

Well this old man, he played eight
He played knick-knack on his gate
Knick knack, paddiwack, give a dog a bone
This old man came rollin' home

Come old man
Right on now
Right on
