(as sung by BS&T, slightly different than
original lyrics)

Hi De Ho

Hi De Hi

Gonna Get me

A piece of the pie

Gonna get me

Some of that Old Sweet Roll

Singin' Hi de hi de hi de hi de Hooooo

I've been down so low

Bottom looked like up

Once I thought that seconds saves

was enough to fill my cup

So I proffered all I got

But it ain't no way to live

Being taken by the ones who got

The least amount to give

Hi de ho

Hi de hi

Gonna get me a piece of the sky

Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

Singing hi de hi de hi de hi de hooooo.



Once I met the devil

He was mighty slick

Tempted me with worldly goods

Said -you can have your pick-

But when he laid that paper on me

And he showed me where to sign

I said thank you very kindly

But I'm in too good-a mood to mind

Hi de ho

Hi de hi

Gonna get me a piece of the sky

Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

Singin' hi de hi de hi de hi de hooooo.

Hi de ho

Hi de hi

Gonna get me a piece of the sky

Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll

Singin' hi de hi de hi de hi de hoooo

(repeat to fade)
