Porter Wagoner
Dooley

(Rod Dillard - Mitchell Jayne)

Dooley was a good old man he lived below the mill
Dooley had two daughters and a forty gallon still
One gal watched the boiler the other watched the spout
Mama corked the bottles and old Dooley fetched them out.

Dooley slippin' up the holler
Dooley tryin' to make a dollar
Dooley give me a swallow
And I'll pay you back some day.

The revenuers came for him a slippin' through the wood
Dooley kept behind them all and never lost his good
Dooley was a trader when into town he'd come
Sugar by the bushel and molasses by the tons.

Dooley slippin' up the holler
Dooley tryin' to make a dollar
Dooley give me a swallow
And I'll pay you back some day.

--- Instrumental ---

I remember very well the day old Dooley died
The woman folk felt sorry and the men stood around and cried
Now Dooley's on the mountain he lies there all alone
They put a jug beside him and a barrel for a stone.

Dooley slippin' up the holler
Dooley tryin' to make a dollar
Dooley give me a swallow
And I'll pay you back some day.

Dooley slippin' up the holler
Dooley tryin' to make a dollar
Dooley give me a swallow
And I'll pay you back some day...


Mirror lyrics:

And I'll pay you back some day...
Dooley give me a swallow
Dooley tryin' to make a dollar
Dooley slippin' up the holler

And I'll pay you back some day.
Dooley give me a swallow
Dooley tryin' to make a dollar
Dooley slippin' up the holler

They put a jug beside him and a barrel for a stone.
Now Dooley's on the mountain he lies there all alone
The woman folk felt sorry and the men stood around and cried
I remember very well the day old Dooley died

--- Instrumental ---

And I'll pay you back some day.
Dooley give me a swallow
Dooley tryin' to make a dollar
Dooley slippin' up the holler

Sugar by the bushel and molasses by the tons.
Dooley was a trader when into town he'd come
Dooley kept behind them all and never lost his good
The revenuers came for him a slippin' through the wood

And I'll pay you back some day.
Dooley give me a swallow
Dooley tryin' to make a dollar
Dooley slippin' up the holler

Mama corked the bottles and old Dooley fetched them out.
One gal watched the boiler the other watched the spout
Dooley had two daughters and a forty gallon still
Dooley was a good old man he lived below the mill
