We're All Dodgin' Songtext
Oh the candidate′s a dodger
Yes a well-known dodger
Oh the candidate's a dodger
Yes, and I′m a dodger too
He'll meet you and treat you
And ask you for your vote
But look out boys
He's a-dodgin′ for your note
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
Dodgin′ dodgin' dodgin′
Oh we're all a-dodgin′
On our way through the world
Oh the merchant is a dodger
Yes a well-known dodger
Oh the merchant is a dodger
Yes, and I'm a dodger too
He'll sell you the goods
At double the price
When you go to pay him
You′ll have to pay him twice
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
Dodgin′ dodgin' dodgin′
Oh we're all a-dodgin′
On our way through the world
Oh the lawyer is a dodger
Yes a well-known dodger
Oh the lawyer is a dodger
Yes, and I'm a dodger too
He'll plead your case
Like a mighty good friend
But look out boys
He′s easy for to bend
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
Dodgin′ dodgin' dodgin′
Oh we're all a-dodgin′
On our way through the world
Oh the general is a dodger
Yes a well-known dodger
Oh the general is a dodger
Yes, and I'm a dodger too
He'll march you up
And he′ll march you down
But look out boys
He′ll put you underground
Oh we're all a-dodgin′
Dodgin' dodgin′ dodgin'
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
On our way through the world
Oh the preacher is a dodger
Yes a well-known dodger
Oh the preacher is a dodger
Yes, and I'm a dodger too
He′ll preach you the gospel
Tell you of your crimes
But look out boys
He′s a-dodgin' for your dimes
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
Dodgin′ dodgin' dodgin′
Hallelujah I'm a-dodgin'
On our way through the world
Oh the doctor is a dodger
Yes a well-known dodger
Oh the doctor is a dodger
Yes, and I′m a dodger too
He′ll come to you and cure you
And act like a friend
But when you get the bill
You'll be sick again
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
Dodgin′ dodgin' dodgin′
Oh we're all a-dodgin'
On our way through the world
Oh the lover is a dodger
Yes a well-known dodger
Oh the lover is a dodger
Yes, and I′m a dodger too
Freddy I can hear
Those church bells chime
I can hear them too
So I′m dodgin' down the line
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
Dodgin′ dodgin' dodgin′
Oh we're all a-dodgin'
On our way through the world
Oh the singer is a dodger
Yes a well-known dodger
Oh the singer is a dodger
Yes, and I′m a dodger too
Sitting on the porch
All day long
And he just keeps singing
That same damn song
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
Dodgin′ dodgin' dodgin′
Oh we're all a-dodgin′
On our way through the world
Oh we're all a-dodgin'
Dodgin′ dodgin′ dodgin'
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
On our way through the world
Yes a well-known dodger
Oh the candidate's a dodger
Yes, and I′m a dodger too
He'll meet you and treat you
And ask you for your vote
But look out boys
He's a-dodgin′ for your note
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
Dodgin′ dodgin' dodgin′
Oh we're all a-dodgin′
On our way through the world
Oh the merchant is a dodger
Yes a well-known dodger
Oh the merchant is a dodger
Yes, and I'm a dodger too
He'll sell you the goods
At double the price
When you go to pay him
You′ll have to pay him twice
Oh we′re all a-dodgin'
Dodgin′ dodgin' dodgin′
Oh we're all a-dodgin′
On our way through the world
Oh the lawyer is a dodger
