Lyrics:

Ham bone, ham bone, pat him on the shoulder
Hammer down a pretty girl to show you how to hold her
Santa Claus was a good old man
Washed his face in the frying pan
Combed his head with a wagon wheel
Died with a toothache in his heel
Ham bone, ham bone, where's you been?
All around the world and back again
Ham bone, ham bone, where did you go?
I hopped up to Miss Lucy's door
Asked Miss Lucy, will you marry me?
I don't care, papa don't care
First walked in was Mr. Snake
Crawled all over that wedding cake
Next come in was Mr. Bug
Threw all over that whiskey jug
Next come in was Mr. Tick
He ate so much that it made him sick
Next come in was Mr. Coon
He laughed and sang us a wedding tune
Said ham, ham, ham, ham, ham, ham
Ham bone, ham bone, where you been?
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
