World And The Suck
Ton : AEnglish
Refrain
AIt took a mighty good man with salty hands
And a mighEty long raft to keep the fore before the aft
You take ten good men and Aguts and luck
And you Emight navigate the Awhirl and the suck
Couplet
Well the TenAnessee River changed its mind
At Chattanooga she oughEta unwind
She Acould a run right on the Georgia Sea
But she cut right back through TenEnessee
Couplet
Well Athe settlers come by raft
And boat bringin' everything that could Estay a float
But Alike a loco horse that'll twist and buck
They hardly ever made it through the Ewhirl and the Asuck
Refrain
AIt took a mighty good man with salty hands
And a mighEty long raft to keep the fore before the aft
You take ten good men and Aguts and luck
And you Emight navigate the Awhirl and the suck
Couplet
General WaAshington was in his knicker bocks
The Cherokee Indians through the ChattaEnooga Rocks
And the ChickaAmagua tribe and the Nickajack
They kept the watch where the riEver cut Aback
And if a raft or a boat ever Arode the bend
The Indians got 'em 'cause they Ehad 'em hemmed in A
Refrain
AIt took a mighty good man with salty hands
And a mighEty long raft to keep the fore before the aft
You take ten good men and Aguts and luck
And you Emight navigate the Awhirl and the suck
