 Well I'm goin down to the swamp, goin to watch a hound dog catch a coon.

 Ohhh, fetch my cane pole mamma, goin catch a bream or maybe two.

Well, I'd rather live with the hound dogs for the rest of my natural born

Well, I'd rather live with the hound dogs, for the rest of my natural born

life.

Well I want to live with the hound dogs, for the rest of my natural born
