Hi Jolly

Randy Sparks

[Chorus]
Hi Jolly, hey jolly
Twenty miles today by golly
Twenty more before the morning light
Hi Jolly, ay
I gotta be on my way
I told my gal I'd be home Sunday night

[Verse 1]
Hi Jolly was a camel driver long time ago
Followed Mr. Blaine a-way out west
Didn't mind the burning sand in that God forsaken land
But he didn't mind the pretty gals the best

[Chorus]
Hi Jolly, hey jolly
Twenty miles today by golly
Twenty more before the morning light
Hi Jolly, ay
I gotta be on my way
I told my gal I'd be home Sunday night

[Verse 2]
They got pretty gals in Albuquerque, least that's what I've heard
Prеtty gals in Tucumcari too
Now, honey, I ain't blind, but I don't pay 'em any mind
I'm saving all my lovin' just for you

[Chorus]
Hi Jolly, hey jolly
Twеnty miles today by golly
Twenty more before the morning light
Hi Jolly, ay
I gotta be on my way
I told my gal I'd be home Sunday night

[Verse 3]
Old timers out in Arizona tell you that it's true
You can see Hi Jolly's ghost a-travelin' still
When the desert moon is bright, he comes ridin' through the night
Leading forward twenty camels 'cross the hill
And singing

[Chorus]
Hi Jolly, hey jolly
Twenty miles today by golly
Twenty more before the morning light
Hi Jolly, ay
I gotta be on my way
I told my gal I'd be home Sunday night
And shoutin'
Hi Jolly, hey jolly
Twenty miles today by golly
Twenty more before the morning light
Hi Jolly, ay
I gotta be on my way
I told my gal I'd be home Sunday night

[Outro]
Told my gal I'd be home Sunday night
Told my gal I'd be home Sunday night
Hi Jolly, hey jolley, hi
Heeyah!
