You get a line and I'll get a pole, honey
You get a line abd I'll get a pole, baby
You get a line and I'll get a pole
And we'll go down to the Crawdad hole
Honey, sugar baby, mine

Get up old man, you slept too late, honey
Get up old man, you slept too late, baby
Get up old man, you slept too late
Last piece of Crawdad's on your plate
Hony, sugar baby, mine

Get up old woman, you soept too late, honey
Get up old woman, you soept too late, baby
Get up old woman, you soept too late
Crawdad man done passed your gate
Honey, sugar baby, mine

Along come a man with a sack on his back, honey
Along come a man with a sack on his back, baby
Along come a man with a sack on his back
Packin' all the crawdads he can pack
Honey, sugar baby, mine

What you gonna do when the take goes dry, honey
What you gonna do when the take goes dry, baby
What you gonna do when the take goes dry
Sit on the bank and watch the crawdad die
Honey, sugar baby, mine

What you gonna do when the crawdads die, honey
What you gonna do when the crawdads die, baby
What you gonna do when the crawdads die
Sit on the until I cry
Honey, sugar baby, mine

I heard the duck say to the drake, honey
I heard the duck say to the drake, baby
I heard the duck say to the drake
There ain't no crawdads in this lake
Honey, sugar baby, mine
