Lyrics
I’ll sell my hat, I’ll sell my coat
To buy my wife a little flat boat.
Down the river we will float,
Come bibble in the boo-shy-lo-ree.
Refrain
Shule, Shule, shule-i-rue,
Shule-i-rack-a-shak, shule-a-barbeque.
When I sell my Sally bal-a-yeal,
Come bibble in the boo-shy-lo-ree.
I’ll sell my pants, I’ll sell my vest,
To get enough money to go out west,
And there I think I can do the best,
Come bibble in the boo-shy-lo-ree. Refrain
