Guys, crank her off back here, and I'll see if I can sing it.
Ha!
Woo!
Far away on yonder hill, old blues are barkin'
At a coon, I guess she's chased all night
It's just about two hours before the dawnin'
And Jacob's cabin doesn't show a light
Then the ruffle of the leaves beside the pathway
A small animal appeared, black and white
And as I run for life toward Jacob's cabin
The old cat right behind me, smellin' up the countryside
I holler, wake up, Jacob, stir up the light
You ever see a man and a polecat fight?
Turn on the light and let me in
Wake up, Jacob, let me in
Woo!
Ha!
Yeah!
I'm gonna do this next verse, soon as I think of it.
As I wait, am I, ain't that something?
I wrote this thing, too.
The plant, Cornelius.
Has it, what?
The plant, baby.
What is down there?
Well, the polecat, look at that.
Oh, I see.
Oh, I see, yeah.
Hell, what?
Wow.
How long have they had them things up?
Forever, Cornelius, forever.
Well, the polecat looked at me with his tail held high
As frantically I beat on Jacob's door
Then what a welcome sound to my nervous ears
As I heard Jacob's big feet hit the floor
As I waited there for Jacob to unlock the door
The polecat's perfume
The polecat's perfume
Filled the morning air
And the odor was so strong
That my eyes burned
And as the smell began to curl my hair
I'm all good
Wake up, Jacob, stir up the light
Every see a man and a polecat fight
Turn on the light and let me in
Wake up, Jacob, let me in
Come on
Wake up, Jacob, stir up the light
Every see a man and a polecat fight
Turn on the light and let me in
Wake up, Jacob, let me in
The end
The end

Ha!

And Jacob's cabin doesn't show a light
Then the ruffle of the leaves beside the pathway
A small animal appeared, black and white
And as I run for life toward Jacob's cabin
The old cat right behind me, smellin' up the countryside
I holler, wake up, Jacob, stir up the light
You ever see a man and a polecat fight?
Turn on the light and let me in
Wake up, Jacob, let me in
