Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key Lyrics - Live At The Union Chapel - Billy Bragg

I lived in a place called Okfuskee 

And I had a little girl in a holler tree 

I said, little girl, it's plain to see 

Ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Ain't nobody that can sing like me 

She said it's hard for me to see 

How one little boy got so ugly 

Yes my little girly that might be 

But there ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Way over yonder in the minor key 

Way over yonder in the minor key 

There ain't nobody that can sing like me 

We walked down by the Buckeye Creek 

To see the frog eat the goggle-eye bee 

To hear the west wind whistle to the east 

There ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Oh my little girly will you let me see 

Way over yonder where the wind blows free 

Nobody can see in our holler tree 

And there ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Way over yonder in the minor key 

Way over yonder in the minor key 

Ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Her mama cut a switch from a cherry tree 

And laid it on the she and me 

It stung lots worse than a hive of bees 

But there ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Now I have walked a long long ways 

And I still look back to my Tanglewood days 

I've led lots of girls since then to stray 

Saying ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Way over yonder in the minor key 

Way over yonder in the minor key 

Ain't nobody that can sing like me 

Ain't nobody that can sing like me
