Hop Up, My Ladies

Did you ever go to meetin', Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe?
Did you ever go to meetin', Uncle Joe?
Did you ever go to meetin', Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe?
Don't mind the weather so the wind don't blow.

cho: Hop up, my ladies, three in a row, (3x)
     Don't mind the weather so the wind don't blow.

Will your horse carry double, Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe

Is your horse a single-footer, Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe

Would you rather own a pacer, Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe

Say, you don't want to gallop, Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe

Say, you migh take a tumble, Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe
Well, we'll get there soon as t'others, Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe

From Our Singing Country, Lomax
tune: McLeod's Reel
