[Chorus] Come along, little children, come along While the moon is shining bright Get on board, down the river float Raise a ruckus tonight! [Verse 1] I love my wife, I love my baby I love that biscuit dipping in gravy Save me the hambone , give me the gravy I love my biscuits sopped in gravy [Chorus] Come along, little children, come along While the moon is shining bright Get on board, down the river float Raise a ruckus tonight! [Verse 2] Now when I die, won’t you bury me deep Put molasses on my head, on my feet Put them flapjacks in my hand All the way to the promised land [Chorus] Come along, children, come along While the moon is shining bright Get on board, down the river float And raise a ruckus tonight! [Verse 3] Now some folk say that the preacher don’t steal Well, I caught one in my corn-field One had a bushel, one had a peck One had a rooster around his neck [Chorus] Come along, little children, come along While the moon is shining bright Get on board, down the river float Raise a ruckus tonight! [Chorus] Come along, little children, come along While the moon is shining bright Get on board, down the river float Raise a ruckus tonight! Why don’t you raise a ruckus tonight? Come on and raise the ruckus tonight!
