Yonder come a man with a sack on his back, honey
Yonder come a man with a sack on his back
Crawdads crawlin' back to back
Honey, baby, mine

Well, what you gonna do when the meat gives out, baby
What you gonna do when the meat gives out, honey

You get a line and i'll get a pole, baby
You get a line and i'll get a pole
We goin' down the crawdad hole
Honey, baby, mine
