Off to the woods for to catch a groundhog
Oh, groundhog
Run here Sally with a ten foot pole, (repeat)
To twist that whistle-pig out of his hole
Oh, groundhog
Here comes Sal with a snicker and a grin, (repeat)
Groundhog gravy all over her chin
Oh, groundhog
Look at them fellers, they're a-goin' wild, (repeat)
Eat that hog before he's cooked or biled
Oh, groundhog
I dug down but I didn't dig deep, (repeat)
There laid a whistle-pig fast asleep
Oh, groundhog
Now the meat's in the cupboard and the butter's in the churn, (repeat)
If that ain't groundhog I'll be derned
Oh, groundhog
Well you eat the meat and save the hide, (repeat)
Make the best shoestring ever was tied
Oh, groundhog
Look at them fellers, they're about to fall, (repeat)
Eat till their britches won't button at all
Oh, groundhog
Little piece of cornbread a-layin' on the shelf, (repeat)
If you want any more, you can sing it yerself
Oh, groundhog
