My uncle used to love me but she died
A chicken ain't chicken 'til it's lickin' good fried
Keep on the sunny side
My uncle used to love me but she died
Who'll bid me quarter thirty cents for a ring o' keys?
Three sixty-five for a dollar bill of groceries?
I'll have me a car of my own someday but 'til then I need a ride
My uncle used to love me but she died

A chicken ain't chicken 'til it's lickin' good fried
Keep on the sunny side
My uncle used to love me but she died
Hamburger, cup o' coffee, lettuce and tomato
Two times a dime to see a man kiss the alligater
One more time around free on the ferris wheel ride
My uncle used to love me but she died
My uncle used to love me but she died
A chicken ain't chicken 'til it's lickin' good fried
Keep on the sunny side
My uncle used to love me but she died
Apples are for eatin' and snakes are for hissin'
I've heard about a-huggin' an' I've heard about kissin'
I read about it free in a fifty-cent illustrated guide
My uncle used to love me but she died

Keep on the sunny side
My uncle used to love me but she died
