Old Rattler was a good old dog blind as [A] he could be.
Every time at supper time I believed that [D] dog could see.
Hey Rattler, jump, jump, hey [A] Rattler, hey, oh, Rattler.
Hey [D] Rattler, hey, I rattled a tree during the night and I thought he'd [A] treat a goose.
When I come to find it out, he's barking [D] at the moon.
Hey Rattler, hey, oh, Rattler, in the morning, hey, Rattler, hey.

Grandma had a mewling cow, mewling when she [A] was born.
It took a jay bird forty years to find him horn [D] to horn.
Hey, hey, in the morning, hey, Rattler, hey.
Grandma had a yellow hen, we set her at, you [A] know,
set her on three buttered eggs, hatched down when [D] old folks, hey.
Hey Rattler, hey, oh, Rattler, in the morning, hey, Rattler, hey.

Now old Rattler's dead and gone, my old [A] good dog gone.
You better not act a dog yourself, you'll be [D] going to jail.
