Lyrics

Chorus:
My uncle used to love me but she died
A chicken ain't chicken 'less it's lickin' good fried
Keep on the sunny side
My uncle used to love me but she died

Who'll give me quarter, 30 cents for a ring of keys
365 for a dollar bill of groceries
Gonna have me a car of my own someday but till then I need me a ride
My unlce used to love me but she died

Hamburger, cup of coffee, lettuce and tomato
Two times a dime to see a man kiss an alligator
On more time around three on the ferris wheel ride
My uncle used to love me but she died

Apples are fer eatin' and snakes are fer hissin'
I heard about hugging and kissing
I read about it free in a pics and an illustrated guide
My uncle used to love me but she died
