Lyrics

Old Joe Clark - traditional adapted by John Croizat

Old Joe Clar is a friend of mine
Here’s the reason why
He keeps his friends supplied
With ice cream, cake and pie

Old Joe Clark has a wooden leg
Made of knotty pine
When Old Joe Clark goes to a dance
The band keeps real good time

Round and around Old Joe Clark
Round and around I say
Round and around Old Joe Clark
Dance to the break of day
Round and around Old Joe Clark
Round and around again
Round and around Old Joe Clark
Give those gals a spin

Old Joe Clark lives on a mountain
Way up in the air
Everybody wonders
What the heck he does up there

Old Joe Clark everything you heard
About him’s true
Just because Old Joe can
Don’t think that you can too
Round and round etc.

Old Joe Clark went out one night
To dance by the light of the moon
When Old Joe Clark come back inside
He was singing this silly tune -- it went . . .

Round and around Old Joe Clark
Round and around I say
Round and around Old Joe Clark
Dance to the break of day
Round and around Old Joe Clark
Round and around again
Round and around Old Joe Clark
It's time for this song to end







Round and around Old Joe Clark
Round and around I say
Round and around Old Joe Clark
Dance to the break of day

Round and around Old Joe Clark
Round and around again
Round and around Old Joe Clark
It’s time for this song to end.
