He don't dress nice, but tries good to kill

 CHORUS:
 Burma Shave, Burma Shave
 Burma Shave, Burma Shave
 I bet I've seen a million roads
 Of them little red bow-legged signs up & down the line
 Come on, come on & get it, get it

 Pappy ain't a smart, he ain't but a-quizzin'
 But with one thing he knows how to keep 'em all his

 (chorus)
 (instrumental)

 Way down yonder by the forks of the branch
 The old sow whistles & the little pigs dance

 (chorus)
 (instrumental)

 Roses are red, violets are blue
 You chase me & I'll catch you

 (chorus
