My dog treed I went to see
(Carve on to the heart)
A possum on a limb staring down at me
(Carve on to the heart)
Well I reached up and I took him on in
(Carve on to the heart)
It was the last damn thing that possum ever did
(Carve on to the heart)
You got to carve that possum
You got to carve that possum
You got to carve that possum
You got to carve on to the heart
Three to four potatoes in a pan
(Carve on to the heart)
The best darn eating in the whole southern land
(Carve on to the heart)
Well that possum meat is just all right by me
(Carve on to the heart)
Always so red, and always so sweet
(Carve on to the heart)
You got to carve that possum
You got to carve that possum
You got to carve that possum
You got to carve on to the heart
My dog treed I went to see
(Carve on to the heart)
A possum on a limb staring down at me
(Carve on to the heart)
Well I reached up and I took him on in
(Carve on to the heart)
It was the last damn thing that possum ever did
(Carve on to the heart)
You got to carve that possum
You got to carve that possum
You got to carve that possum
You got to carve on to the heart
