Skip To My Lou

Skip, skip,skip to my lou



Skip, skip, skip to my lou



Skip, skip, skip to my lou



Put on your Sunday, go to meetin'



And I'll take you by the hand



If you will be my dancin' partner



We will dance to beat the band



So join the promenade



And lead the big parade



And if you don't get home at all



Your pa will understand



Oh, choose partners, skip to my lou



Choose partners, skip to my lou



Choose partners, skip to my lou



Skip to my lou, my darlin'



Flies in the buttermilk, shoo, shoo, shoo



Flies in the buttermilk, shoo, shoo, shoo



Flies in the buttermilk, shoo, shoo, shoo



Skip to my lou, my darlin'



I'll be glad to go with you



So prithee do not tarry



But if i do, it's up to you



To let me dance with Harry



Skip to my lou

Skip to my lou



Skip to my lou, my darlin'



Skip to my lou

Corner boy, buck and wing, corner girl



Ida booth by to the center and whirl



Everybody dance



Lost my partner



(Skip to my lou)



Lost my partner



(Skip to my lou)



Lost my partner

Skip to my lou, my darlin'



I'll find another one prettier than you



I'll find another one prettier than you



I'll find another one prettier than you



Go to another party



Oh, I'll fly away to a neighborin' state



I don't care what my friends say



We'll dance and sing till broad daylight



I won't get home till Wednesday

Skip, skip, skip to my lou



Skip, skip, skip to my lou
