Oh, the path
was deep and wide
from footsteps leading
to our cabin

Oh, the path

was deep and wide
from footsteps leading
to our cabin

Above the door there

burned a scarlet lamp

And late at night a hand
would knock and there
would stand a stranger

Yes, I'm the son of

hickory holler's tramp

Yeah, the weeds were
high, the corn was dry

when Daddy took to
drinking

Him and Sally Walker,

they up and ran away

Then Momma
shed a silent tear and
promised fourteen
children. I swear you'll
never see a hungry
day

When
Momma sacrificed her

pride, the neighbours
started talking

But we were much too

young to understand the
things they said

All we really cared

about was Momma's
chicken dumplings

And a goodnight kiss

before we went to bed

Oh, you know, the path
was deep and wide
from footsteps leading
to our cabin

Above the door,

there burned a scarlet
lamp

And late at night a hand
would knock and there
would stand a stranger

Yes, I'm the son of

hickory holler's tramp

When Daddy left and

destitution came upon
our family

Not one neighbour

volunteered to lend a
helping hand

So just let 'em gossip

all they want she loved
us, and she raised us

The proof is standing

here a full grown man

Last Summer Momma

passed away and left
the ones who loved her

Each and every one is

more than grateful for
their birth

And each Sunday she

receives a big bouquet
of fourteen Roses

Oh, you know, the path
was deep and wide
from footsteps leading
to our cabin

Above the door there

burned a scarlet lamp

And late at night a hand
would knock and there
would stand a stranger

Yes, I'm the son of

hickory holler's tramp

Oh, you know, the path
was deep and wide
from footsteps leading
to our cabin

And late at night a hand
would knock, and there
would stand a stranger

Yes, I'm the son of

hickory holler's tramp
