My Uncle Used to Love Me But She Died lyrics

My uncle used to love me but she died

A chicken ain't chicken 'til it's lickin' good fried

Keep on the sunny side,

My uncle used to love me but she died

Who'll give me quarter,

Thirty cents for a ring of keys

Three, sixty five for a dollar bill of groceries

I'll have me a car of my own someday,

But till then I need me a ride

My uncle used to love me but she died

My uncle used to love me but she died

A chicken ain't chicken 'til it's lickin' good fried

Keep on the sunny side,

My uncle used to love me but she died

Hamburger, cup of coffee, lettuce and tomato

Two times a dime to see a man kiss the alligator

One more time around free on the ferris wheel ride

My uncle used to love me but she died

My uncle used to love me but she died

A chicken ain't chicken 'til it's lickin' good fried

Keep on the sunny side,

My uncle used to love me but she died

Apples are for eatin' and snakes are for hissin'

I heard about a huggin' and I heard about a kissin'

I read about it free in a fifty cent illustrated guide

My uncle used to love me but she died

My uncle used to love me but she died

A chicken ain't chicken 'til it's lickin' good fried

Keep on the sunny side,

My uncle used to love me but she died

Well my uncle used to love me but she died

A chicken ain't chicken 'til it's lickin' good fried

Keep on the sunny side,

My uncle used to love me but she died

My uncle used to love me but she died

My uncle used to love me but she died...
