Lyrics
It's all out on the old railroad
All out on the sea
All out on the old railroad
Far as I can see
Swing and turn, jubilee
Live and learn, jubilee
Hardest work I ever done
Workin' on a farm
Easiest work I ever done
Swingin' my true love's arm
Swing and turn, jubilee
Live and learn, jubilee
If I had a new needle and thread
Fine as I could sew
I'd sew my true love to my side
Down this creek I'd go
Swing and turn, jubilee
Live and learn, jubilee
If I had no horse to ride,
I'd be found a-crawlin'
Up and down this rocky road
Lookin' for my darlin'
Swing and turn, jubilee
Live and learn, jubilee
Some will come on Saturday night,
Some will come on Sunday;
If you give 'em half a chance
They'll be back on Monday
Swing and turn, jubilee
Live and learn, jubilee
I won't have no widder man
Neither will my cousin,
You can get such stuff as that
For fifteen cents a dozen
Swing and turn, jubilee
Live and learn, jubilee
