2:46
single, 1924
traditional, probably?
In this song, the narrator cheerfully recounts his eating and drinking. "I′se a-walking down the street and I stoled a ham of meat." You gotta keep that skillet greasy when you bring home the bacon! He also makes a delightful proposition to his lady: "Honey, if you say so, I′ll never work-a no more / I'll lay round your shanty all the time, time, time." Women love layabouts, and Macon sure sounds like a bluegrass hillybilly on this recording.
