My dog treed I went to see, Pomme du Lhon,
There was a possum up that tree, Pomme du Lhon,
And that possum began to grieve, Pomme du Lhon,
I reached up and to gave him, Pomme du Lhon,
Oh come, possum, [Db] come that possum children,
[Ab] Come that possum children, oh come to his heart.

I brought him home and dressed him more, Pomme du Lhon,
Hung him out that night in the frost, Pomme du Lhon,
For we need to cook the possum now, Pomme du Lhon,
For it's five more and baking brown, Pomme du Lhon,
Oh come, possum, [Db] come that possum children,

Some eat early and some eat soon, Pomme du Lhon,
