Woody Guthrie Lyrics

I walked out on a sage brush hill

Thought I'd find me a hog to kill

Heard a pig squeal and up jumped one

I pulled my trigger and I drug him home

Jiggy jiggy bum bum

Hey piggy run run

Jiggy jiggy bum bum

And a hey piggy run

Tied my rope around his feet

Swung him up in the mill to bleed

Middle of the night grey wolf come

Take his wife and family some.

Jiggy jiggy bum bum

Hey piggy run run

Jiggy jiggy bum bum

And a hey piggy run

Grabbed my gun, run to the hill Standing up around the old windmill

I says grey wolf if you come to steel

I'll slit your belly and hang you by the heels

Oh Mr. ranchman Mr grey wolf said

My eleven little babies are starving dead

I said grey wolf I'm troubled myself

Cause I've got a wife and a children twelve

And the old grey wolf made the big run Made me jump and I dropped my gun

Took my gun throwed it in the well

Turn the old grey wolf's soul to hell

Well the old grey wolf run to the mill Seen my hog hanging by his heel

Filled up his belly from a puddle of blood

And he grabbed my hog and struck for home

Jiggy jiggy bum bum

Hey piggy run run

Jiggy jiggy bum bum

And a hey piggy run
