Hi de Ank Tum

Jim Ed Brown and the Browns · The Three Bells [Bear Family] [1993]

I'm gathering rainbows and picking up dreams

Got a heart full of heaven and a pocket full of schemes

Hi de ank tum daddyo, daddyo,

Hi de, hi de ank tum daddyo.



I'm busy as the river flowing down to the sea

Got a sweet sweet baby who's a fool about me

Whenever there's trouble she's a standin' at my side

And when the goin' gets so rough I just flow with the tide.



Hi de ank tum daddyo, daddyo

Hi de, hi de ank tum daddyo.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm pickin' up sunshine and handin' up smile

It's a long road to travel but I love every mile

Hi de ank tum daddyo, daddyo

Hi de, hi de ank tum daddyo.



I'm busy as the river flowing down to the sea

Got a sweet sweet baby who's a fool about me

Whenever there's trouble she's a standin' at my side

And when the goin' gets so rough I just flow with the tide.



Hi de ank tum daddyo, daddyo

Hi de, hi de ank tum daddyo...
